This course consists of 6 "traditional-style" piano lessons based on the book Faber Piano Adventures Level 1. Each learner will need a copy of this book for the class. Throughout this course learners will focus on chords. Learners will be presented with visuals of the songs as well as a keyboard visual to facilitate understanding throughout the lesson. During each class, learners will review previous songs and terms, learn new songs, and demonstrate good piano playing technique. Learners will learn up to 10 songs throughout this course. Learners should practice between classes to improve their skills and prepare for class. Music theory in this course includes tonic and dominant chords. This course is designed to follow level 1, part 4 instruction. Learners should know how to count music with quarter notes, half notes, dotted half notes, whole notes and quarter rests. Learners should be able to name some notes on the staff and play songs with 2 hands. Listed below is a concept outline for the course. The pacing of this course may be adjusted as needed. Week 1-3 tonic chord Week 4-5 dominant chord Week 6 final performances, review game While it is not required, individual playing will help learners receive positive feedback to facilitate progress. Learners are encouraged to respond positively when others play to facilitate a safe performance space. Arranging your device to show your hands, keeping your video on during class and practicing between classes will optimize learning. Adjusting the settings in Zoom to "Original Sound for Musicians" "On" will ensure that Zoom does to suppress the music as noise. There may be additional settings to check before the start of class. To assist with practicing between classes, video demonstrations of the songs will be posted in the Outschool classroom as well as music notes and audio play along tracks.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Hello! My name is Mrs. McArthur and I teach MUSIC! I am a Texas certified all-level music teacher with 29 years of teaching experience, 26 years in public schools and 3 years online and homeschool experience. I have taught preschool through eighth grade General Music and Choir classes. I received a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education with an emphasis in vocal music from Oklahoma Baptist University.
I believe that every learner can make music! Learners need a variety of experiences to learn music skills, including visual, aural and kinesthetic. Given sequential steps, students can achieve well beyond the expectations. When creativity is modeled, learners discover that making mistakes improves music. Learners need opportunities to be creative with choices so they can create on their own terms and interests. By making connections to science, social studies, math and beyond, students learn that subjects don’t exist in isolation. Music is the universal language and learners deserve a chance to explore the world through a musical lens!
