BEA'S KEYS
Upon checkout, you may select "Standard Flat Rate Shipping" to have your order insured. BMTA is not responsible for loss or damage occurring during shipping.
Bea's Keys is a set of 30 laminated cards, each of which fits exactly on a white piano key. Each Bea's Key shows one note on the Grand Staff, all the way from Low C to High C. The student places the Bea's Keys on the keyboard one at a time, learning to recognize the notes on both the piano and the printed page, and making the connection between the two. You may begin by giving the student one or several Bea's Keys, depending on the student's length of study. When these have been mastered, more are added until the student can place all 30 Bea's Keys on the keyboard in one minute. Note recognition from staff to keyboard improves dramatically!
BONUS: With each ten sets of Bea's Keys you order, you receive one FREE set for your studio. Then, each of your students buys a set of Bea's Keys from you to practice with at home, and your studio set is free!
Extra single Bea's Keys are available in limited supply for $0.50 each, in case you lose one from your set:

The Scale Sheets present each scale in an easy-to-read visual format, showing the pattern of white and black notes, the right- and left-hand fingerings, and the note names. The Major scales are on one side, and the harmonic minor scales are on the other. Each Scale Sheet is printed on durable cardstock and allows the student to immediately see where the accidentals are and how the fingering is numbered. The Scale Sheets will save you from ever having to write out the notes and fingerings of scales for your students again!

The Chord Cards are similar to the Scale Sheets, except that they show the fingering and note names for the chords in the chord progression of I-IV-I-V-I-V7-I. One side shows the Major keys, and the other side shows the minor keys. These are printed on cardstock and help the student see how to move from one chord to the next, so that they may more easily learn both the notes and fingerings of these chords.

MAGNETIC GRAND STAFF

The Magnetic Grand Staff is a black board, 16.25" high and 10.25" wide, on which is printed the Grand Staff in an easy-on-the-eyes red. Along the top and bottom, the evolution of the treble and bass clefs is illustrated. Included with the Magnetic Grand Staff are 9 round, white easily-movable magnets (which represent the notes), 3 round, red magnets (the roots of chord inversions), 7 magnetic sharps, and 7 magnetic flats. With the Magnetic Grand Staff, your students can make intervals and scales, build triads, learn key signatures, make chord inversions, and change major chords to minor, augmented and diminished. By actually placing the magnetic notes, sharps and flats on the staff, the students learn by doing. Suddenly, theory makes sense!
Know-Your-Notes Flashcards
$3.95
This set of 2 x 4" flashcards, printed on cardstock, help you and your students more easily work with the Magnetic Grand Staff. There is one flashcard for each note name and each key, and 16 words spelled with the musical alphabet, such as FADE and EDGE. Instead of having to call out note names and key signatures and having to think of words for the student to make with magnets on the Magnetic Grand Staff, you can quickly show these flashcards. They are great for group lesson games and are sure to make learning more fun!
Advanced Magnet Set
$13.95
If you work with more advanced piano students, this set of additional magnets will help them learn the more challenging work of chords, inversions, chord resolutions and part-writing. It is meant to be used in conjunction with the magnets included with the Magnetic Grand Staff. The Advanced Magnet Set includes: 3 round blue, 3 round green, 3 double sharps, 3 double flats, 3 natural signs, an extra sharp and flat, and these Roman numerals to label the chords made by the student on the Magnetic Grand Staff: I, i, ii, iii, IV, iv, V, V7, vi, and vii.
Extra single notes, sharps, flats and naturals are available in limited supply for $0.75 each:

PROGRESS CHART
$5.95
The Progress Chart helps you record the progress of your piano students, by easily marking down and keeping track of their mastery of scales, arpeggios, inversions, cadences and 5-finger patterns. A white poster board measuring 15" high and 21" wide is printed in black and has space for the names of 12 students. Piano lessons go by so quickly that often the basic scales, chords and exercises go unheard. The Progress Chart allows you to monitor your students' proficiency in these skills. When you place it in clear view of students, parents and teacher, students are motivated to complete the chart (and perhaps win a trophy!). It is a great incentive, and every student can be a winner. As each skill is practiced and perfected, you can place a star, dot or sticker in the spaces, or color in the spaces as a bar graph, and all can see each student's progress.
