Why this order of major and minor scales?
The order of keys in this pack matches the key introduction schedule of the Piano Adventures method books. Of course, you are welcome to re-order the pages to suit your students' needs.
The first section focuses only on 5-finger scale pattern with only WHITE KEYS.
The second section introduces basic 5-finger scales as "major," now adding the F# in D Major, Bb in F Major, and so on. 6 major pentascales are introduced, plus E Minor as a bonus challenge scale. (B Major is included only in the appendix.)
If you are seeking a scale set that features ALL major and minor pentascales, check out my Level 2 Scale Pack.
How does the lifetime license work?
You may print and reprint this pack for any student who passes through your studio! Purchase of this product is for a single-studio or single-classroom license. Please reuse it for all of your students as you choose. But you may not share it online or with another teacher.
