This approach of FOUR BUILDING BLOCKS gets students out of their sheet music and into making music. It also empowers all the students to know everything that is happening in the music and jump on any part when necessary. Everyone learns the groove, melody, bassline, and harmony. When we learn these four blocks in this specific order, students are equally responsible for the music and able to support one another. Once we learn this streamlined approach on one song in 20 minutes, teachers will be able to to transfer it on any song. This is an approach I've seen work over the past decade of teaching across different ages and skills.
