Atlanta, Georgia, November 24, 2001 - Music You Can Read adds Scale Fingering Charts to "Music You Can Read." Continuing to improve on the most advanced elementary music curriculum, and, the only curriculum dedicated to teaching all elementary students to become musically literate before advancing into middle school, Music Notes, Inc. has added Scale Fingering Charts.

Scale Fingering Charts include the same colors used in the Recorder Charts and the Ukulele Charts, and, therefore make the mastery of pitches faster and easier than ever before. "Scale Fingering Charts are intended for advanced students, and reinforce concepts taught throughout the curriculum, such as whole and half steps, key signatures, and major scale patterns," states Jess Buice, founder and CEO of Music Notes, Inc. Mr. Buice added, "each chart includes reminders of these concepts, as well as helpful hints so that the student can teach themselves, utilizing the skills learned during keyboard centers."

"Our goal is for students to continue to learn at their own pace, and discover the language of music on many instruments. The Scale Fingering Charts develop proper fingering when students choose their own selections, and keep those who are moving faster through centers, active and continuing their progress, without any down time, waiting for others to catch up."

Scale Fingering Charts and all of the materials in "Music You Can Read," bring private lesson objectives into the general music class. Studies have shown students who participate in private music lessons, score higher, and have a higher self-esteem through the confidence gained in learning the language of music, which for most, is another way to express their feelings. "Music You Can Read" is the only resource for teaching music literacy, and providing private lesson objectives to all students!

Established in 1996 to bring the "language of music" to all children, Music Notes, Inc. publishes "Music You Can Read" a supplemental curriculum teaching all children to read music during their primary and elementary school years. "Music You Can Read" is unique in offering song selections formatted as beats, rhythm, solfeggio, pitch numbers, letter names, music only, and text. Music Notes, Inc. maintains the Internet sites, http://musicnotes.net and http://musicyoucanread.com providing teachers, parents, administrators, universities, and all persons interested in teaching music, access to "Music You Can Read."
