How long will it take to teach Level TWO?
*It will take about 18 weeks if you see them daily and follow the procedure listed above.
Can I get a synopsis of what is in each lesson?
*I have spent many hours creating the Product Descriptions on Teachers Pay Teachers. This will be the best place for you to get a general idea of what is coming in each lesson. Start here. Inside the description, you will find more hyperlinks that will take you on a Lesson tour starting with Lesson 1 and progressing through the entire program.
I have also included these three links that are intended to inform you a bit more on how to use this program:
What is Music Prodigy and do I have to use it with S-Cubed?
Music Prodigy is a computer/app based program that allows students to practice and teachers to assess their students. I tried the program for one year with my 340 middle school students, and I liked it so much that I decided to supplement S-Cubed by creating homework examples specifically for Music Prodigy. When you purchase the “Add on”, you and your students gain access to the homework examples. In S-Cubed, your students begin actually sight singing during Lesson 4. There is one homework example for each example that is included in S-Cubed. I wrote them to complement what we worked on that day in class. I intend for teachers to assign the complementary homework example on the day the material was covered in class. It will take most children no more than 5 or 10 minutes to complete.
I used S-Cubed for many years without Music Prodigy, and my students were successful. However, Music Prodigy has simplified individual assessment for me significantly.
Here is a link that includes a bit more information about Music Prodigy.
Thank you so much for your purchase! Best of luck as you work through the program!
