Revising basic music theory or teaching older learners? Do you need a Music Theory course that is not babyish, includes varied written exercises and self reflection? Are your students ready to move beyond the basic note names and note values? THIS is why I created this course!
This is Book 4 in the series. Books 1-3 introduce the basics of music theory, which you might want to use as revision for your classes, or to start from the beginning with older learners with no prior music experience. Topics included in Book 4 are:
- Simple Time Groupings
- More Key Signatures
- Relative Minor
- Chords I, IV and V
- Triplets
- Further Tempo
- Enharmonic
- Transposing an Octave
- Signs and Symbols
- Italian Terms
The workbook also contains space for students to make notes, and a self-reflection task for them to evaluate their progress. 2 versions of the booklet are included, one with USA terms (staff, whole note, measure etc) and one with UK terms (stave, semibreve, bar etc).
The printable workbook is in PDF format and is 14 pages long. There is one page for each of the ten topics, each with clear explanations and two written tasks for pupils. This booklet is versatile and can be used in class, as homework, with whole classes or even by individual piano teachers or instrumental teachers on a one-to-one basis. It is designed to be worked through in order, spending a little time each lesson on theory, over 10 weeks in total.
This workbook follows on from books 1-3 (available here); books 5-6 coming soon!
I have used this booklet for years with my own students, usually from age 8-12, but the clear layout makes it suitable for any age. I have also used it with adult beginner piano pupils, who did not want to work from materials aimed at young children. Please let me know how you use it!
These theory workbooks are not affiliated with any particular curriculum or examination board, but books 4-6 are aimed at the following approximate levels:
- England/Wales GCSE
- Scottish SQA Higher and Advanced Higher
- ABRSM grade 2 theory
- Trinity grade 2 theory
