Read an independent review from Eclectic Homeschool Online.
This curriculum will give your child an
advantage for when they study music in
later years. It uses the Kodaly solfegge
(Do-Re-Mi, remember from the Sound of
Music?) method with hand signs to
enhance learning and developing a musical
ear. It teaches rhythm, matching pitch,
listening, rests, and scale steps. It also
teaches melody contour and the musical
alphabet.
The curriculum is written in a Christian
perspective. Some of the songs and
lessons include biblical references and/or
moral themes.  There are also grade-level
concepts in the lessons, making learning
about music go hand-in-hand with the
things your child is learning about in other
subjects.  This reinforces their overall
learning experience, and facilitates a
well-rounded education.
This unique curriculum ties in
Second Grade concepts into the
music lessons. One of the lessons
on roman numerals also teaches
the scale steps 1 - 8. These songs
are intended to help your child learn
the concepts while learning about
Music. The idea behind the dual
teaching is when both sides of the
brain are used, learning happens.  
Pfeiffer House Music was written by
Kristi Oostdyk, a music educator in
Michigan.  These lessons are based on
the methods Kristi used while teaching
elementary music in various public and
private schools.  These methods have
proven to be highly effective for teaching
music.  
Actual Customer Comments:

“Cool music curriculum, look forward to getting
them started”

“Received today - looks very user friendly
and can't wait to get started!”

““Thank you for a wonderful product!”

“Great.”
There are fourteen lessons.  We
recommend teaching one to two
lessons per month with review in the
weeks between.  In addition to the
lessons, there are added suggestions
to supplement learning.  This
curriculum is very flexible with your
schedule. It will go hand in hand with
your child's grade level learning,
making it relevant and enjoyable to him
or her.
