ABOUT THIS WEBSITE

The piano teaching resources and activities featured on this website are the result of my work with beginning and intermediate piano students over the years. Each activity grew out of the need to extend learning experiences to help students grasp a new idea or to reinforce something recently learned.

Our website offers also two collections of early childhood resources: 1) finger plays and rhymes for young children, and 2) stories with songs and song stories. These are a sampling of the folk songs  and activities I’ve used over the years in my work as an early childhood music teacher and elementary general music teacher. Early exposure to rhymes, stories, and songs enriches children’s understanding of rhythm, melody, language, and movement, giving them a rich foundation of experiences that benefit key areas of learning and development.
