Streamlining my piano lesson assignment plans to online documents including virtual links allows my students easy access to learning videos and song samples all in one place. This post includes specific instructions for pieces in the Piano Adventures Lesson Book 1 but many of the activities could also be used with other pieces for introducing the treble clef space notes.
Concept: Introducing Treble Clef Space Notes
UNIT 2 : TREBLE FACE SPACE
Lesson: Red LB 18 Skipping in Space
Watch “F-A-C-E FACE”
Sing and Sign the Solfa Patterns in the Song. F is Do.
Play FACE-Blank by guessing the last note your teacher plays (F, A, C, E, ?) Was it F(Do), A (Mi), C (So) or E (Ti)?
Listen to the audio of Skipping in Space as you point to the notes in your music.
Write the note names on the blank lines of the staff, and the solfa (Do, Mi, So) below the line, then sing them as you play the song.
Try the Creative Challenge at the bottom of the page.
Game: VMT FACE-Jibbety
Focus Goal/New Concepts: Treble Spaces
Lesson: Red LB 19 Half Time Show
Sing and Sign Solfa Patterns from the Treble Clef as you listen to Half-Time Show. at half speed (change youtube settings) Hint: F is Do
Optional Game: Slap Fish w/ Treble FACE cards
Lesson: Red LB 20 The Lonely Pine
Listen to The Lonely Pine as you sight read and play just the first note of each measure.
*Can you play the whole song and quickly prepare your right for the 2nd line by shifting quickly to the new position?
Creative Challenge: Compose your own “Happy Pine” lively melody that includes just the notes F-A-C-E in any order/octave.
Lesson: Red LB 21 Li’L Liza Jane
Color the dynamics in your music as you listen to Li’L Liza Jane.
Play as written, then transpose to the G Scale.
