Description

01. Book Three contains a complete review of the concepts introduced in Book One and Book Two of the series.

02. High School Directors may prefer to use Book One and Book Two in lower level classes and use Book Three as the theory text for the top Ensemble. This is the sequence preferred and used by the author in his classes. Students in the top ensemble complete the entire third book in a single school year. Students who have completed the third book during previous years (their sophomore or junior year perhaps) must only re-take the quizzes given to the class and correct any previous mistakes prior to periodic grading of the workbook. This repeating cycle allows students new to the program to learn new information while insisting that older students retain mastery of it.

03. Upon completion of Book Three students will be well-prepared to begin further study of harmony and other advanced topics. Successful completion of Book Three is a noteworthy event. Directors may wish to notify parents or make an announcement at the Spring concert.

04. Successful completion of Book Three is a noteworthy event. Students should be praised for this accomplishment. Directors may wish to notify parents with a special letter home or an announcement at the Spring band concert.
