GENERAL MUSIC
01. THEORY: NOTE READING BY STEP-WISE MOTION
.......a. IDENTIFYING NOTE NAMES USING STEPS and SKIPS
.......b. IDENTIFYING HOW MANY LINES and SPACES THERE ARE IN BETWEEN THE NOTES THAT MOVE BY SKIP
02. JOLLY OLD ST NICK RECORDER SONG TO BE PLAYED ON THE KEYBOARD
.......a. TREBLE CLEF ("G" CLEF) SYMBOL REVIEW (NOTES ON LINE 2 OF THE STAFF ARE NAMED "G")
.......b. KNOWING THAT LINE 2 OF THE STAFF IS "G" STUDENTS IDENTIFY and WRITE DOWN THE NAMES OF ALL THE OTHER NOTES OF THE SONG
.......c. DEMONSTRATION OF WHERE THE NOTES FOR THIS SONG ARE LOCATED ON THE KEYBOARD
............1) FINDING MIDDLE "D" FIRST (THE WHITE KEY IN BETWEEN BLACK KEYS IN PAIRS OF TWO)
............2) USING THE MUSICAL ALPHABET FORWARD TO FIND THE FIRST NOTE OF THE SONG "B"
............3) USING THE STEPS and SKIPS IN THE MUSIC NOTATION TO DETERMINE WHICH NOTES MOVE BY
..................a) WHEN NOTES SKIP IN MUSIC NOTATION THE SIZE OF THE SKIP or INTERVAL (THE AMOUNT OF LINES/SPACES IN BETWEEN THE NOTES) HELPS TO DETERMINE HOW MANY KEYS WILL BE SKIPPED ON THE KEYBOARD (EXAMPLE: WHEN READING NOTES "B" TO "G" THERE IS A SKIP
OF ONE SPACE IN BETWEEN THE LINES THE NOTES FALL ON; THAT ONE SKIP THAT ONE WHITE KEY WILL BE SKIPPED ON THE KEYBOARD WHEN PLAYING THOSE NOTES)
..................b) STUDENTS TO TAKE WRITTEN MUSIC WITH THE NOTE NAMES THEY JUST WROTE IN TO THE KEYBOARD TO LEARN TO PLAY
