The charts enable teachers to pace the learning to suit their students and break down the learning into smaller chunks, but also vary the practice to keep the momentum going. Once the scales have been learnt use the Challenge it! Cards to test that learning.

These Scales Practice Records are blank for teachers to add the scales that the student in learning. There are multiple designs so students and teachers have lots to choose from.

Use the chart to either put a date, a tick or even a sticker in the relevant box so that the student knows which level they are working on for each scale. The idea being that students can be working on different scales at different levels, with eventually all scales being in the Challenge it! Box.

Starting with writing out the scale, the student takes ownership of the scale by writing it down. The student then moves on to Plat It, Say It with the music, meaning the student should both play the scale on their instrument but also say out loud the notes they are playing, either simultaneously or one after the other. When the student has mastered this section, move them on to Play It, Say It, without the music. The student does the same challenge as before only this time without looking at the music. Once confident with this the student moves on to playing the scale with both slurred and separate patterns. Lastly the student Challenges their knowledge.

The Challenge It! cards have been developed to help you challenge your learning. By challenging our learning we see how well we really know something. If you can play your scales whilst making animal impressions, or changing the standard rhythm, or stamping your feet, then you can be sure that you have really learnt them!
