The #1 selling point for Lorelai is the hands-on activities. The coloring pages, folderbooks, maps, games and other activities included in this curriculum are a motivation for her. Although she has no learning challenges, she’s not big on reading. She’d much rather do activities than read. Knowing she’ll have a note-taking page to fill out or a coloring activity helps her to get through the reading part to get to the “fun” part. See more…

Everything, with the exception of the music, is included in one manageable sized book for both teacher and student. This is a plus for me, because it makes it easy, inexpensive, and portable. I can’t tell you how much I love this feature! One of my pet peeves is bulky, cumbersome curriculum, and with three students in three different grades, I don’t have the time or space for complicated!

Our family has very much enjoyed using this study. One of the things that I love about it is that it can easily be geared towards various ages. While it is written for grades 4-8th, even my younger children have been able to get a lot out of just listening to the various composers. The back of the book includes coloring pages and my younger children have really enjoyed coloring them as they listen to various pieces of music by each composer. See more…

A Young Scholar’s Guide to Composers is a wonderful, well-rounded composer study that clearly shows the development of musical style, the relationships between composers and the influence of religion on music. It puts all of this into a geographical and historical context with map and timeline work. See more…

This is one of the most organized, well-thought-out books I have ever used. The authors are not only very knowledgeable about their topic, the composers, but they have also created a tool kit for helping students of all ages enjoy learning about them. See more…

I have tried to study different classical composers in the past and never amounted to much. This study has pulled everything I would want to study and more together in a way that is fun and very easy to use. See more…
