Sound Innovations for Elementary
Class Guitar
Jason Yeary & Aaron Stang.
This method is written specifically to address the needs and
learning styles of children. Beginning with rote learning,
imitation, and echoing, students will play and perform familiar
melodies, strum chords, perform duets and trios, sing, and
accompany singers. The curriculum takes them through
reading music notation, guitar tablature, and guitar chord
diagrams - while traditional chords will be taught, they'll
also explore the neck of the guitar with simple and exciting
nontraditional "moveable" chord shapes. The method is
organized into four levels, each with nine parts for a total of
36 lesson plans. Online resources include streaming video
that corresponds to each lesson plan, downloadable MP3s
that demonstrate every example and song in the book, and
reproducible PDFs for student assessment. The method
follows both state and national music education standards.
Note: This student edition of Sound Innovations for Elementary
Class Guitar is streamlined and relies on instruction from the
teacher. It's critical for the teacher to own a copy of the Teacher
Edition for effective instruction. Sound Innovations Online
