About the Composer: Helen Marlais

Why we love this

These flashcards solve a real problem in piano instruction: bridging the gap between lesson and practice by giving parents and siblings an active role in daily reinforcement. The color-coding system makes it impossible to grab the wrong category, and the sheer number of cards (108 total) means students won't exhaust them quickly or memorize the order.

What to expect

Like having a patient, tireless tutor in your pocket. The cards are cheerful and approachable without being babyish, and the variety across categories keeps practice sessions from feeling monotonous.

Who it's for

Elementary piano students in the 1B level who are ready to solidify their grasp of note reading, interval identification, rhythm patterns, and musical terminology. Parents and home practice partners will find these cards invaluable for structured, quick review sessions between lessons.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shuffle cards within each color before quizzing to prevent students from relying on sequence memory rather than actual recognition.
  • Mix colors randomly once students show confidence with individual categories; this trains transfer of knowledge across concept areas.
  • Have the student write their answers before flipping the card back, making it a genuine practice tool rather than passive recognition.

How to use it

Send these home immediately after introducing each new concept in the 1B curriculum. They're especially useful for students who need extra reinforcement before moving to 2A, and they work beautifully as a back-pocket tool for makeshift group lessons or pre-recital brush-ups with multiple students.

Skills your students will build

  • Note identification on the grand staff
  • Interval recognition and naming
  • Rhythm pattern reading and notation symbols
  • Musical terminology and performance directions
  • Ear-to-eye coordination in theory application
