The Musicplay student books were designed to look and feel like a band method book.
The student books are 8.5x11 soft cover books. They are inexpensive and could be purchased by students. Each of the books is 60+ pages and contain all the songs (100+) that are in the Musicplay curriculum.
Important concepts are highlighted and defined.
Having the music in the child's hands is important if the teacher hopes to develop musicians who can read music.
A full class set of student books is not always needed. Students can share one book between two students. In some cases sharing books helps the weaker readers to track the words.
The Musicplay student books are a literacy resource offering excellent opportunities for shared reading!
