Last week I started two young beginners in a partner lesson. l plan to write more about how I’m teaching partner lessons later on. Today I made these little alphabet cards for the students in the partner lesson so that they can practice naming the white keys together. I was inspired by Dr. Knerr’s idea of decorating the piano.
I used different colors in the background of the alphabet cards so that you don’t have to print on different pieces of colored paper.
I printed, laminated, and cut out the cards.
Students can then place the cards on the appropriate key on the piano.

Update: Here is a file with the colors of alphabet cards to coordinate with Boomwhacker colors.
Lauren teaches piano to students of all ages in New Orleans, LA. Teaching is her passion. She enjoys creating resources for her students and is the author of Ready for Theory®.
Is there a way I can change the background colors to Boomwhacker colors?
Starla, I’ll make one that coordinates with boomwhacker colors and will post later today.
Got the new file uploaded, Starla. Enjoy!
