The FJH Guitar Student Manuscript Book: Elementary Guitar Book

Beginning guitarists who are ready to write their own music or need a dedicated space to notate exercises and compositions. Teachers using this with elementary students will find it cuts down prep time and keeps young players focused on the fundamentals of music notation.

Hand this to students as part of your curriculum once they've grasped basic staff reading and first position playing. It works best as an ongoing resource throughout the first year of study, giving every lesson a place to document progress and notation skills without requiring a separate reference guide.

• Writing notes on the guitar staff in first position
• Notating first position chords and chord progressions
• Reading and applying music notation symbols and terms
• Documenting exercises and original compositions by hand
