"Know the Scale" Worksheets

Created by

Ultimate Band Room

This handout allows students to practice learning any major scale in multiple ways. Students can fill out the note names (in any 1 octave range), and they also list the note letter names. In addition, they fill in their correct fingerings using a blank template underneath each note. The PDF's are also formatted to "type into" if you wish to do some of the work for students ahead of time. I tend to print one of these for each scale students are learning, so they'' end up with 7-12 of these.
