SMART: Sight Singing Made Accessible,
Readable, Teachable—Denise Eaton. Founded
on the premise that young singers tend to view
each key as a separate "language," this creative
approach to sight singing addresses the needs of
visual learners by organizing the treble and bass
clef exercises key by key. Volume 1 provides visual
orientation and melodies to sight read in seven
keys. Each section begins with the scale and
outlines the tonic chord for that key, followed by a
tonal drill. Students are introduced to the intervals
of seconds, thirds, fourths, fifths and sixths.
Volume 2 is designed to hone the reading skills
of advanced choirs and to provide preparatory
materials for the rehearsal and performance of
works in minor tonalities, while Volume 3 focuses
on modulating tonalities.

Snap Cards—Theresa Pritchard. Snap Cards,
a series of carefully curated skill-building
flashcards, is a classroom tool designed to help
students confidently learn to sight-read while
having fun as a class. After years of learning
which intervals and patterns are consistently
challenging for emerging singers, Pritchard has
developed a reliable method for simplifying this
typically intimidating subject. Educators will find
fun and exciting suggestions for utilizing the
cards in the classroom for both teaching and
assessing reading skills. Snap Cards for Upper
Voice Treble Clef features intervals inherent to
the soprano and tenor voice sight-reading skill
set, while the SA Lower Voice packet features
alto sight-reading skills. The unison/mixed bass
clef set may be used by tenors and basses who
read in the bass clef. Each pack has 50 cards,
grouped into ten groups of five, with each group
building upon the skills of the previous groups.
