You will find that this method and its hands-on tools will revolutionize how you teach music literacy! A set of lesson plans walks you step by step through teaching with these 31 manipulative blocks representing the five most common note and rest values. By working with the blocks and the method, your students will immediately understand the relationships between these note values as well as the "silent" notation on the backs. The three time-signature frames will help students compose in 2/4, 3/4, or 4/4 time. Rhythms are easily read by simply saying the colors! Perfect for music centers!
