Welcome to the enchanting realm of kalimba music! Here’s everything you need to start playing beautiful melodies. No prior musical experience or the ability to read sheet music is required to start playing immediately. This sheet music is adaptable to any kalimba you have, whether it’s a compact 10-note instrument or a larger 17-note kalimba. Each circle on the sheet corresponds to a specific note number, matching each key on your kalimba. Playing is as simple as following the numbers. It’s important to remember, however, that the circles do not represent semitones. This book contains songs that demonstrate rhythm and note duration, so you can feel like a real musician! All pages also have QR codes that link to songs. While these examples may not demonstrate our simplified melodies and may not always be performed on a kalimba, they help in understanding the melodies and rhythm.

This illustrated book contains a collection of classic ancient tales, presented in a bilingual edition, that is perfect for those learning Spanish or English. With 137 stories and parallel translations, it provides students at any level with a chance to expand their vocabulary without needing to refer to a dictionary all the time. With this format, each Spanish sentence is accompanied by its English translation on the same page, making it easy to compare and understand. Learning with parallel text The parallel text encourages ‘noticing’ - the presence of the target language and the first language version on the same page facilitates ‘noticing’ grammar and vocabulary structures in an authentic linguistic context. Students learn vocabulary in context, the parallel text presents new lexical items without the teacher’s direct involvement. This can effectively encourage reading for less confident individuals, the translation support lessens the anxiety levels of such learners and provides a solid and effective mechanism for learning a second language. Learning with fables The enduring nature of fables is enthralling, and the morals they impart can be extremely relevant in today’s world. Fables are stories that teach important lessons about life. They can teach us how to be brave when things are hard, how to work well with others, how to accept people for who they are, and how to make good choices. By reading these fables, you’ll not only become familiar with common language expressions, but you’ll also gain valuable worldly wisdom. 137 short stories The most popular version of Aesop’s Fables was published in 1919 and is housed in the Library of Congress. Most English-speaking readers know this variation of the fables. In this book, the fables have been updated with modern language, making them shorter and easier to understand for today’s readers. Likewise, the Spanish versions have been modernized. In addition to modernizing the language, some stories have been eliminated or updated to reflect our modern world. The stories in this collection are brief and can be read quickly – each fable only spans one or two pages that can be completed in a single sitting. While we believe that anyone can benefit from reading these stories, having a basic understanding of Spanish is recommended in order to fully appreciate the value of the message in both languages.

Welcome to xylophone music! No musical background or sheet music knowledge is necessary to start playing immediately. This sheet music is suitable for any xylophone you have at home, whether it’s a small 8-note toy xylophone or a larger 25-note xylophone designed for adults. Each circle on the sheet corresponds to a specific note letter, representing each key on your xylophone or glockenspiel. Simply follow the letters to play the notes. If your xylophone features colored keys, you can also match the circles’ colors using a PDF editor or by coloring them with pencils. This allows you to play by either letter or color. It’s important to note that the circles do not denote semitones, note duration, or rhythmic patterns. The melodies provided here are simplified for a one-octave diatonic xylophone. Additionally, all pages include QR codes linking to songs. While these examples don’t represent our simplified melodies and aren’t performed on a xylophone, they aid in understanding the melodies and rhythm.

Ofrezco la forma más fácil de lograrque leer libros con niños sea un placer, incluso para aquellos niños que escuchan la palabra “leer” a regañadientes. Con el tipo habitual de lectura, un niño es un oyente pasivo, mientras que con “lectura con imagen”, él o ella se convierte en un participante activo. Incluso si los niños ya pueden leer, están felices de leer textos donde algunas de las palabras son reemplazadas por imágenes y lo perciben como un bono o un premio. Es más importante recibir estos bonos para los niños que recién comienzan a leer o para quienes la lectura aún requiere esfuerzo. Un niño pequeño solo puede expresar palabras representadas por imágenes. Esta “lectura” no solo hace que los niños participen plenamente en el proceso, sino que también les enseña a conciliar las palabras de la imagen con otras palabras de la oración. Los niños mayores pueden intentar leer palabras de una lista de vocabulario que aparece antes del texto.Un niño que ha comenzado a leer podrá disfrutar leyendo el texto completo. Si le estás leyendo a tu pequeño, leelentamente. Deja que tu hijo piense en la oración, encuentre la palabra correcta y disfrute el proceso de lectura.

I call this series “Read by Picture” since I am targeting little readers. I offer the easiest way to make reading books with children a pleasure, even for those children who listen to reading reluctantly. With the usual type of reading, a child is a passive listener, while with “reading by picture”, he or she becomes an active participant. Although children may have developed reading skills, they still find joy in reading passages where certain words are substituted with images, viewing it as an additional reward or a special treat. It is more important to receive such bonuses for children who are just starting to read, or for whom reading still requires effort. A small child can only voice words represented by pictures. This “reading” not only makes kids a full participant in the process but also teaches them to reconcile the words of the picture with other words in the sentence. Older children may try to read words from a vocabulary list that appears before the text. A child who has begun to read will be able to enjoy reading the entire text. If you are reading to your little one, please read slowly. Let your child think about the sentence, find the right word, and enjoy the reading process. Some words in this e-book are changed to pictures. Each story has a pictured vocabulary list at the beginning. The e-book includes 3 famous fairy tales: The Wolf and Three Little Pigs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and the Gingerbread Man. Great e-book for non-English speaking children to learn and remember new words in a fun game-based reading activity.

Storytelling and activity songs and rhymes have a long tradition, and at times, they have passed down from generation to generation. My ebook has more pictures than words in order to methodically introduce each movement and associate it with a spoken word. I use two kinds of pictures: pictures that tell a story or plot which can be discussed, and pictures showing motions that will be repeated throughout the activity songs and rhymes. They are detailed so it is not necessary to go back each time. In my ebook, you will find 5 popular activity rhythms with very detailed pictures of each gesture. You and your kids will be able to learn each finger/hand movement step by step, bringing enjoyment to both of you. Contents: Five Little Pigs Hickory Dickory Dock Princess Pat You might ask why you should buy books with fingerplays when there are so many free videos on YouTube. I believe that parents should define the development and entertainment of their children. Video content is entertainment, not a participatory game. It is created by somebody else, not the child, and grabs the attention of kids against their will. This book also provides instruction for the hand movements but gives the child the space for their own sense of creation. Hand gestures are not done for the child, but by the child. Here is a chance for kids to think, learn, and to try for themselves. Also, the ebook suggests more activities compared with simply repeating from an image on a screen. Kids can see all gestures step to step, try them and feel them. This gives them the chance to see themselves from the outside looking in, modifying when necessary to get it just right. This self-analyzing ability is an extremely important skill for their future lives.

Enjoy and play the story about the wheels that go round and round, doors that open and shut, a horn that sounds and people who go up and down.

I call this series “I don’t read music” since I am targeting beginners of all ages: children, teens, parents, and grandparents. Folk music traditionally is not learned from sheet music or notes. Instead, it is learned by repetition and being passed from generation to generation. I believe in this method of teaching, which is easier and more enjoyable. This songbook includes 65 familiar and easy-to-play songs and melodies. Most songs have been simplified and transposed for one octave. So the songbook is suitable even for a diatonic 8-note kalimba in C-scale, and 10- or 17-note as well. Since this e-book is aimed at the absolute beginner without any knowledge of reading music, I do not use here the classical music staff and do not show the note duration. You can experiment with the duration on your own. I recommend finding each of these songs on YouTube and listening to the rhythm before beginning to play. My sheet music is only a guide. The most important thing is to listen and repeat the recordings. If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow number-coded circles in this songbook. By simply following the numbers, you will sound like an experienced musician. Contents: Alphabet Song A Hunting We Will Go A Sailor Went to Sea Acka Backa Are You Sleeping?
