  1. Amber G. –

    This was a great resource for a homeschool mom that doesn’t feel confident teaching music. Very thorough and appealing to little learners.

      Thanks so much! I’m so glad your little learners enjoyed it! It sounds like you might also be interested in my Basics Series, which goes through each basic element of music and is accessible for a wide range of ages and skills levels. You can find those under Basics Series in my custom categories. Thanks again for your review!

  11. Shannon F. –

    With the pandemic, trying to teach my usual curriculum with mods seemed overwhelming. This is a great resource that gives me a great guide to follow, that I can supplement with activities that I normally do. It makes going into teaching with all this regulations way less overwhelming. I also think the kids will enjoy making their own book.

  12. Leigh J. –

    Adorable music book. I wish there had been a bit more instruction on teaching the actual lessons, but I was able to figure it out.

      Thanks for the feedback. I will keep this in mind for future revisions πŸ™‚

  13. Carolyn R. –

    This year, I was only able to use them for steady beat, but the kids loved them. I loved them as a visual assessment on their learning. These have been great when I used them for sub plans as well.
