Lightning Piano Sight Reading Sally Hopkins

This is the third book in the Lightning Piano Sight Reading series which aims to simplify sight reading and make it FUN for young children. The approach is structured following the content of the Lightning Piano Books. It focuses on pulse, rhythm and reading pitch by both note recognition and pitch direction. Each chapter includes duets which not only make sight reading more enjoyable but encourage pupils to keep the pulse and to listen while playing. Also featuring Zac The Zebra's Puzzle Time and Chipmunk's Challenge note reading and improvisation ideas. Inspired by Paul Harris' books on Simultaneous Learning, Lightning Piano introduces new concepts slowly and logically a step at a time so that theory, aural and practical skills are combined.
