DESCRIPTION:
Jane L. Wells said More fun than Flash Cards. I have enjoyed the system of check marks that this clever book uses to encourage sight reading. My grandson is challenged and he is getting a lot better at sight reading.. Kindle Customer said Just right. Exactly what I was looking for. Needed this for my son and was grateful that I ordered the right book. Was cheaper than buying it from the music school. Great Start!

The suggested practice routine fosters excellent self-evaluation habits. Progress reports help teachers and students track annual progress
