If you have only 30 class periods in a year to teach music, how will you fit in reading? Code Name Games make the process of symbol recognition fun and easy! Students will work in groups to solve musical puzzles using music symbols and will develop ownership of their music reading knowledge as soon as three weeks into the school year.
The book contains thirty-six lessons teaching Kindergarten through 5th grade students how to use music symbols while engaging them in cooperative learning strategies. The book is arranged into 4 nine-week units, each with a different focus. Each lesson takes five minutes of class time to implement, making it easy to teach children this essential skill while leaving the rest of the schedule intact.

Reviews for "Code Name Games - Thirty-Six Symbol Recognition Games for Elementary Music"
I admire your versatility and creativity. It takes great discipline to write good music (I never had it) akin to computer coding. Instilling music symbols, like language, into young minds is the best way to have them remember those symbols their entire lives. I think that's why your books are so original and precise in their presentation. Discipline.
