| MySheetMusic | This is a wonderful site for music students. There are free lessons that cover the musical staff, notes, time signatures, etc.. It's an excellent way to supplement your private music lessons. It also offers some sheet music that you can print out without charge. It's a great place to spend some time whether you're a child or an adult |
| ThinkQuest | This site also offers free "Music Magic Online Piano Tutor" lessons. It may appeal more to adults than children as some of the vocabulary is a bit advanced for a young child. Some of the subjects covered are: rhythm, all about notes, the C major scale, time signatures, and more. |
| Musicards | These music interval flash cards are designed to help you recognize common musical intervals on the staff, in both treble and in bass clefs. You can also quiz yourself in reverse (Jeapardy-style!) with verbal descriptions of the answers. Just roll your mouse pointer over a flashcard to see the correct answer! Click on the “more interval flashcards” icon at the bottom of the page to get to more advanced intervals, i.e. diminished, augmented mixed in with the easier ones. |
| ClassicsForKids | This is a simple one for young children. All they need to do is drag the correct letter name to the space below each note to spell a word. What I like is it also plays the note so students can relate to the pitch. It is for treble clef only. I wish they also had the option for bass clef notes as well. |
