As a teacher resource, these pieces may be used in the initial stages of teaching or to supplement the primer with which the student is working and to provide light relief in the form of a song or piece of music that the student can play at home from the very first lesson.
How to Use This Book
The teacher or parent should learn the song as written on the score and teach it to the child through imitation.
It is not intended that the child should read or learn the printed music.
If the child is able to read, he or she can use the page with the printed words and pictures to sing the song while playing. If not, the teacher or parent should continue singing the song to the child until he or she is able to remember the words.
The songs become progressively more difficult throughout the book so that by the end, significant skill has been developed in aural and visual perception.
