 Let's Play Piano! Method Book & Piano Theory Activity Books

In 2015, Michela began work on her own series of piano method books.  Developed and refined since their inception, they have been trialled with dozens of Michela's students, who have loved the content and shown excellent musical progress using the series.  

The books have been recognised by and included in the St Cecilia Examinations Pianoforte Syllabus with selections for pieces in each item group as well as exercises for Beginner, Junior, and Preliminary grades. 
A list of the syllabus inclusions can be found here.

This set of cards for beginner stave readers includes 4 individual cards which can be inverted to make 8 different patterns with notes stepping up and down. Each A4 page can be cut into quarters to make each card 105mm by 148.5mm.
 
No clefs are placed, meaning the note can be any letter the teacher chooses.  The teacher should visualize for themselves the four notes, and then tell the student a starting letter and finger number for either RH or LH.  Ensure that the student can play the pattern within a 5 finger note range.  After the student has correctly played the notes, then the teacher can turn the card upside-down, and the student can attempt the inverted version.
​
The full set (cards 001-040) can be purchased here.
