The piano TRACKS Book of Note Names Barbara Kennedy

The piano TRACKS book of note names is a workbook that helps piano students become confident at identifying notes on the treble and bass clef staves, and develop understanding of how staves work. Notes are introduced from middle C outwards, alternating between treble and bass clef, up to two ledger lines above and below both staves. Each page includes an introduction to the note, an opportunity to draw the note on the stave, and question and exercises that get students thinking about what the note looks like on the stave, where it is on the piano, and how it's pitch relative to other notes. This book can be used as soon as students start learning to read staff notation, and will accompany their learning as they progress through to the elementary stage of their piano studies. When a student encounters a new note in their pieces, use the relevant work page in this book to consolidate their knowledge and understanding.
