Lesson 2/16 | Study Time: 5 Min
INTRODUCTION

Progressive Piano Method for Kids, comprising three Method books, has been designed to introduce the younger student to the basics of piano playing and reading music.

To maximize the student’s enjoyment and interest, the Progressive Kids series incorporates an extensive repertoire of well-known children’s songs. All the songs have been carefully graded into an easy-to-follow, lesson-by-lesson format, which assumes no prior knowledge of music or the piano by the student.

Method Book 2 will help develop the student’s ability to read music, as it incorporates very easy arrangements involving one octave on the treble staff and one octave on the bass staff.

It introduces the student to eighth notes, dotted quarter notes, staccato, legato, ties, first and second endings, the C Major Scale and playing in the C and F position. Only the white keys are used. New pieces of information are highlighted by color boxes, and color illustrations are used throughout to stimulate and maintain the student’s interest.
