Lesson script
Play the left hand first, then the right hand alone. As you play each note, say “line” or “space” out loud when the book is teaching reading. Notice: when the bottom note of an octave is on a line, the top is on a space (and the reverse). Finger numbers on top; timing numbers below on some pages. Octaves use fingers 1 and 5. Hands together only after each hand feels easy. Done when: one clean slow performance of the piece.
