  • October 18, 2011 great for sight reading

    This book uses the "step skip and repeat" method for teaching sight reading. You start first with lines of steps, where the child learns to recognize that one note is one step above or one step below another. Then the 2nd section of the book goes to "skips", where the...

    child recognizes skips (two steps above or below the first), and plays a sequence of skips. Then the 3rd section goes to a combination of steps and skips. In this way, the child doesn't have to recognize the note as say an A; she learns directional relations, which is obviously much easier to begin with.
