Unit 5 Notes: Major Scales, Sharps and Flats, Key Signatures
This massive unit goes into pitch, specifically how to build any major scale using the "formula" and how to break down the math and logic behind sharps, flats, naturals, accidentals, and key signatures.

Unit One Lecture Notes w/ Examples
This is the first curricular lesson of the year in my secondary music theory class. I have students take written notes as I go through all of this on the board. This lesson usually takes us 2-3 classes initially, and we continue to review it until all students have a basic understanding (as well as the material in their binders).
This unit introduces clefs, the musical alphabet, and the basic concepts of pitch. Look to Unit Two for rhythm and time signatures!

Unit 7 Notes - Intervals of the Major Scale
This unit takes what the students know from writing out major scales, and teaches them the aural concept. Instead of just counting out the major scale formula and writing scales down, students will learn about perfect and major intervals that fall within the major scale. These notes are the first half of the unit, and then we use interval charts and aural sheets to teach students what each interval (Perfect Unison through Perfect Octave) look and sound like.
