Strictly Strings, Books 1& 2
Jacquelyn Dillon, James Kjeiland & John O'Reilly.
When you use Strictly Strings with your beginning string classes, your students will be
playing real orchestra music in about four months! They'll be playing music in three-
part harmony, with enthusiasm and expression, and, with all four instruments playing
on all four strings. This method utilizes a unique letter-note style of music notation
that ensures a smooth transition from rote learning to note reading. Your students
will develop a strong understanding of pitch and pulse and will quickly progress to
staff notation. Strictly Strings includes over sixty rich and varied musical selections:
fols songs, famous classical melodies, symphonic themes and original compositions.
In addition, there are seven string orchestra arrangements strategically positioned
throughout the book to give your students full ensemble experience. This progressive
string method will help your string classes to build musicianship from their very first
day, and will greatly enrich your entire string program! (Books 1, 2 and 3 are available.)
String Basics Book 3 by award-winning authors Terry Shade, Jeremy Woolstenhulme,
and Wendy Barden, continues with a strong pedagogy and step-by-step sequences
of instruction preparing students for grade 3 performance literature and beyond. Book
3 opens with independent instrument tuning and then a critical review section allows
students to be prepared by shifting & position work, new major & minor keys, the
chromatic scale, and advanced note values & rhythm combinations. All are reinforced
with technical exercises and a wide sampling of classical and cultural music. Book 3
concludes with vibrato development exercises, specially designed for heterogeneous
classrooms. Each student book and Teacher's Edition comes with a DVD containing
video lessons and accompaniment practice tracks.

Steps to Success for String Orchestra
Terry Shade & Jeremy Woolstenhulme.
String Basics: Steps to Success for String Orchestra is a comprehensive method for
beginning string classes. Through technical exercises, music from around the world,
classical themes by the masters, and original compositions, students will learn to play
their stringed instruments in an orchestra. Step-by-step sequences of instruction will
prove invaluable as students learn to hold their instruments and bows, finger new notes,
count different rhythms, read music notation, and more. Clear, full-color photographs and
fingering chart diagrams introduce playing positions, bow holding and bowing, and left-
hand finger patterns. Duets, rounds, trios, and orchestra arrangements develop students'
ability to play in an ensemble setting right away, thereby strengthening ear training and
intonation. The "Interactive Practice Studio" is a unique downloadable resource containing
a wealth of supporting biographical, historical, and cultural information: photos; maps;
artwork; audio samples; video and more. "Video Lessons" offer students and teachers a
comprehensive, step-by-step look at concepts taught throughout the method. Lessons
are taught in a middle school classroom setting by the authors; the lessons show special
consideration for each instrument, and one lesson is specially devoted to shifting for the
bass. "Theory & Composition" offers students hands-on experience to better understand
what they see and hear by actually learning to notate music and compose simple melodic
lines. The Teacher's Edition provides successful teaching strategies, divided into two
categories: "Performance" and "Musical Understanding." "Guidelines" and "Guideposts"
assist in giving students a comprehensive experience in orchestra. Also available to
teachers is the "Interactive Teacher's Studio," with even more helpful tips and strategies.
