Here's a video of the C Major Scale (pg. 2)
Cadence Blues (parents don't get confused! Follow the order of chords on pg. 6. The cadences on pg. 7 are there to remind them, but when they PLAY in new key (transpose), look at pg. 6!)
"Tricky Counting" is what we use now! (1+ 2+ 3+ 4+) instead of "bee-tle".

Purpose in the Play
Echo Edison
The newest member of our Echo family has arrived. He is Echo Ed and Echo Edna’s grandfather! He likes to ask musical questions and have the kids give him musical answers. He will not only help us learn technique and play finger exercises in 5 keys, but is the vehicle for helping us create our compositions this semester!

Cadence Blues
Cadence Blues is actually ONLY printed in the key of C in your songbooks, but on your CD you have the 'Blues' in other keys. While playing in the key of F or G, you still have to read the song written in the key of C. That's right! Your little musician will be transposing! Woot woot! Be sure to have a device to play the music right at the keyboard to make practicing fun!

Monsters
The new puppet show is entitled Monsters. However, the real name of the puppet show is Montagues and Capulets, also known as Dance of the Knights and is from the ballet 'Romeo and Juliet' composed by Sergei Prokofiev. This puppet show is similar to many of our past puppet shows--it follows the ABA formula that composers love! But the themes are layered on top of each other, and we will further develop our ear training to distinguish the individual layers of sound.
Making Musicians
Wouldn't it be funny if all the characters from our Monsters Puppet Show were actually just friends in their LPM (Lambda Pi Mu) fraternity at Monsters U??? Check it out in this fun post on our Let's Play Music Blog!
