Kids just can’t get enough of clues and secret messages. Inside every child is a little detective just waiting for a mystery to solve.
And, since October is the most mysterious month of the year, it just made sense to create a secret note reading activity for your primer piano students to solve.
Today’s Halloween Note Reading Mystery works well as an end-of-lesson activity or as a homework assignment.
Before You Download Today’s Resource
When it comes to teaching piano, the year is generally divided into “before Christmas” and “after Christmas”.
And the most important month in the “before Christmas” term is October. The back-to-school rush is over and the holiday season has not yet started.
If your piano students are finally going to learn to read notes, October is the month to make that happen!
Because kids can’t learn to read notes in just 30 minutes a week, it is important that they have a resource that can be used every day.
And that is why we created Andrea and Trevor Dow’s Timed Note Reading Tests.
With over 90 days of note-reading exercises, these VERY affordable books are quickly becoming a must-have resource for all primer and level 1 piano students.
While they get rave reviews from teachers, parents love them too! Seeing their children doing daily activities in a piano homework book is a visual reminder that piano lessons are well worth the money.
