    As a grade level teacher, not a music teacher, I found these to be very helpful to me since music isn’t one of my concentrations, but I still wanted to help my students understand music. Thank you!

  19. Vanessa G. –

    Resource looks good, but unfortunately the “completed” pages you see in the preview don’t come with the download. So, if you aren’t quite sure how the author intended the page to be used / completed, it leaves you trying to figure it out on your own. Would have been nice to have the completed sample included.

    • Yellow Brick Road Music –

      I’m sorry Vanessa. I understand. My intentions were to allow students to add their own creativity onto each page, rather than having them follow a set example. If you have any questions about specific pages, I’d be happy to help. You can email me at theylbrickroad@gmail.com.

  20. Brea D. –

    A great way to teach music theory in the classroom.

    • Yellow Brick Road Music –

      Thank you!
