(Don't worry non-music readers! We've included a cheat sheet!)Each playful, space-themed game can be used in a variety of ways, from timing yourself on the page and trying the beat a previous record to searching the page for each occurrence of a specific note. See the table of contents for more great ways to play, or invent your own. Note Quest also includes templates for creating your own games, which you can custom tailor to you or your students’ needs.About the Meridee Winters Music Method:Founded by a former school teacher, Meridee Winters, the Meridee Winters Music Method was created as a solution to a problem: that lesson and exercise books teach at the “rote and recall” level, with little room for creativity. There is also a need for great music materials for learners of all styles, including gifted learners, young learners, ADHD, students that fall on the autism spectrum, those with dyslexia, ants-in-their-pants and more. The Meridee Winters Music Method tackles all of these complex needs with playful, progress-boosting books and activities.Organize, create and supercharge your piano lessons with this innovative book, part of the Meridee Winters “Whole Brain” approach to music education and a great supplement to any series.
