NOTES: PRIMER Kindergarten-Grade 1 Beginner Music Theory Workbook

NOTES: PRIMER is a beginner pre-theory workbook with bite-sized theory worksheets. I designed this workbook to use 1 page per class time with one ear-training exercise, and a short theory activity (usually takes around 5-10 minutes total) Of course we want the focus of our classes to be the actual making of music, but I have found that just a spoonful of independent desk work can be a good way to wind down at the end of class and solidify the concepts we've learned through songs, instruments, and movement activities.
