Flash Cards and Speed Note Naming Sheets

Which is the better way to help your beginners master their first octave of notes and fingerings, flash cards or note naming sheets? I say BOTH! Use of both of these resources to help your students master their first notes.

Speed Note sheets are an effective way of drilling notes with your students. Set your metronome to MM=72 and have them say the notes out loud in whole notes, half notes, etc., until they are fast at note naming. Level 1 sheets use the first five notes for each instrument and Level 2 is a full Concert Bb Octave. Your purchase includes both the PDF as well as the original Finale (version 27.2) files should you want to modify and create your own sheets.

The instrument flashcards cover the first octave of beginning band and are written for flute, clarinet, trumpet, horn, trombone, euphonium, and tuba. Your purchase includes both the PDF as well as the original Finale (version 27.2) files should you want to modify and create your own sheets.
