5 Wheels to Successful Sight-Singing

Summary: 12 Step Approach Very Helpful
Review: I bought this book on sale a couple of years ago and just got around to reading it this summer. I'm an elementary school music teacher. This book has helped me organize my approach to teaching note reading not just sight singing. Mr. Bertalot explains that his approach works best with 2 to 4 students at a time. Nonetheless, in the past 12 weeks of school, I've been using his approach with my regular classes (25 kids in each class with 2nd through 5th grades targeted). Much success already. There is a video that also goes along with this. I'm looking for a resource so that I can order it. If you teach kids or adults, this is a VERY helpful book. The appoach is fresh (yet, traditional) and well laid out. If you would like to e-mail me regarding the book feel free <[e-mail]>

Summary: Teaching sightsinging
Review: When I bought this book I thought I was buying a book to help me with my own sightsinging. However, this book is geared for choir directors and how to teach children how to sightsing. If I was a choir director I would have found this book extremely helpful (especially first time directors). I am not a director and am somewhat disappointed( and feel misled)by the posted decription of this book. I would not have bought it for my collection. Again, it is a wonderful book ( I gave it to our music director) but I would not recommend it for improving your personal sightsinging.
