#3 Hagamos música - Continuación

This course is meant to follow “#2 Let’s Make Music - Piano Lessons For Beginners”. We will build on the knowledge learned in the previous two classes.  Over the course of this 4 week period the students will learn and build upon their skills at their own pace.
In this course students will get more familiar with reading sheet music by sight without needing the letters, learn some new simple hand placements, learn about basic time signatures, and some other note values. 
I ask my students to commit to practicing every song at least 3 times per day. Students MUST have a keyboard or piano to make this class worthwhile. 

Week One - 
Introduce time signatures
Bar lines and Double bar line
"Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"
Practice getting out of the normal 5 finger position

Week Two -
Learn to play a song without helper letters
Practice sight reading
"Pizza Please" RH and LH version
Introduce middle C position

Week Three - 
Continue to work on sight reading - more notes introduced
"Lavendar's Blue"
Learn about eighth notes and dotted half notes
Practice leaving the comfortable 5 finger position

Week Four - 
Introduce "Music Alphabet" song
This song requires both hands
Review of some previously learned material

All of this is subject to change - depending on the students level of comprehension. I do not want to rush through basics but also do like to move at a steady pace.  The more the students practice outside of class the more productive the lessons will be!

*please be on time as I lock the class at 10 mins after start time as per Outschool policy.
