Twelve Days of Christmas Middle C Position Easy Piano
I have a really hard time thinking back to my childhood and remembering what gifts I received for Christmas.
But I can vividly remember lying on the floor in my living room next to two enormous speakers (it was the 1980s!) listening to Raffi sing, "Up On The Housetop" and "Silent Night".
I can also remember listening excitedly on Christmas Eve as my mom read, 'Twas The Night Before Christmas".
For children, this is the magic of Christmas: stories and music.
And this is the magic that you can bring to your piano students when you begin using today's primer Christmas piano book.
The Flight Of The Christmas Tree: Christmas Songs and Activities for Mid-Primer Piano Students is ready for your kiddos!
Composed in middle C position, the traditional Christmas carols in this book combine with hilarious lyrics to weave a heartwarming holiday tale.
In today's post, we will dig deeper into The Flight Of The Christmas Tree and also share a visual preview.
Music To Complete Your Christmas Lesson Planning
The Flight Of The Christmas Tree is your November and December lesson planning… done!
Like all of the piano books in Andrea and Trevor Dow's Very Useful Piano Library, this book is a pedagogical powerhouse jam-packed with piano songs and activities… but with a Christmas-themed twist.
Inside you will discover motivating music, hilarious lyrics, note reading games, music coloring, rhythm activities, sight reading exploration, a practicer tracker, a certificate, and more!
But wait! Is it only for mid-primer piano students?
The Flight Of The Christmas Tree is leveled for mid-primer piano students but it is composed so that it can be used with late primer, and even level 1 piano students too.
Like most mid-primer piano books, the music is in middle C position. But, with 6-line piano solos, the music is a little longer than the songs in most primer resources.
By making the pieces just a little more involved, they work well as supplementary repertoire for older students while still being approachable for mid-primer players.
Today we are thrilled to announce that The Flight Of The Christmas Tree is now available on Amazon.
You can click here or on the cover to buy it now, or check out the preview pages below.
