Steps Overview

Since there are generally coordinators supervising school programs, "Coordinator" materials are also included with each step.

Teacher materials are also included....and remember, Mom and Dad or older sibling are "teachers" too.

The Anybody Can Play PIANO curriculum is considered a language parallel, vertical curriculum. What that means is: after a song is learned it should still be played for continual improvement, and with every song on the app something new is added. Therefore, it is important that each song be learned so well that it is played with ease, memorized, and able to be played on any piano with no "stickers on the keys" help.

FOR COORDINATOR

Even though different materials are listed under different headings, the Coordinator is responsible for scheduling as well as acquiring and distributing all materials.
