This is the second booklet in a set of three designed to develop the keyboard skills of key stage 3 students. The focus in this second booklet is learning how to play a melody with spread across the left and right hands on two staves. Like the other two booklets in this series, this booklet takes students from a rudimentary level all the way to a very advanced level, treating the skill of playing a melody with 2 hands across two staves as being separate to single hand melody playing, and playing a melody and accompaniment with coordinated hands. This philosophy allows students to achieve high levels even if they are unable to coordinate their left and right hands to play two parts simultaneously.

Four of the pieces in this booklet have Sibelius backing tracks in MP3 format to help bring greater context to the melodies that students will be learning. The pieces in this booklet are quite varied, from Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to Beat It by Michael Jackson, so there will be something for everyone across the various levels. Other pieces include Hoist the Colours, Spongebob Square Pants Theme, Axel F Theme, and Bob the Builder Theme.

The pieces are all arranged with the correct fingering to allow students to learn good technique, and they are all fun to learn, and are fairly well-known. I hope that your students will enjoy learning them as much as I have enjoyed creating this booklet. Thank you for considering this resource for your classroom.
