Several teachers have found that tactile learning is a huge benefit to their students! From learning note names on the staff, to creating rhythms, these magnet-back buttons are a helpful hands-on aid! These buttons have a magnet-back to use on white boards (white board not included). 

This pack comes contains 29 magnet buttons:

• Music Alphabet letters A-G

• Numbers 1-6

• 8 filled in noteheads (for quarter notes or 8th notes)

• 4 white noteheads (for whole notes or half notes)

• 4 white noteheads with line in the middle (for whole notes or half notes placed on a line) 

Ideas for using these buttons:

• Have students place the letters on the staff 

• Use when teaching mnemonic devices to remember the line and space notes

• Place the letters on the keyboard and have your student move them to the whiteboard to show correspondence between staff and keyboard, and vice versa.

• Number the lines and spaces of the staff (line 1, line 2, etc.)

• Create rhythms and have students place numbers under the correct beats.

• Trace your student's hand on the white board and have them place the numbers on the correct finger.

• Practice drawing stems in the correct direction.

• Create rhythms using the note heads, and even have students place numbers under the correct beats.

• Create a rhythm for your student to sightread.
