7:57 AM Five Fingers Parajumpers Same Position Notes Reading Method |
Five Fingers Same Position Notes Reading Method There are beginner piano books
begin by introducing five notes i.e. CDEFG in right hand (RH) and CBAGF in left
(LH) by using the same fingers position such as on RH note C played by thumb, D
played by index finger, etc. On LH note C played by thumb, B played by index
finger, so on. I called as "five fingers same position".The benefit is before
added the new note, beginners have practiced some similar exercises so they,
especially kids will not confused by rhythm, names and positions of
notes.Because of many exercises that using the same fingers position, mostly
kids tend to read the fingers numbers as notes positions. For instance, they
mean no. 1 on RH is C - always played by thumb, no. 2 is D - always played by
index finger and so on, likewise on LH.In early lessons, students seem fluently
in notes reading but the problem comes when start playing pieces with no "five
fingers same position".If students have to use "five fingers same position"
books, as teachers, we have to explain from the first lesson that one note can
be played by any fingers and fingers numbers are never changed such as on RH no

always for thumb, no. 2 always for index finger and so on, likewise on LH.To
make students remember the fingers numbers quickly, we can ask them to play as
fast as they can such as "Play C with finger number 1 . Now play C with finger
number 2 and so on". The kids will love this fun game Parajumpers! Then ask them play the same
piece with any fingers by writing a new fingering on their book. For instance,
for RH play C with finger number 2, D with finger number 3 and so on.There is no
perfect method in notes reading, as teachers, we can only find the suitable one
for each student by merging one method with another. I prefer using "five
fingers same position" book at first lesson by using any kinds of fingers
positions, not just as written in book.It is much benefit and easier to learn
right at first than re-learn after made mistakes. However, if students have made
misunderstandings on notes reading, no matter with our own students that have
been taking lessons with us since their first day on piano lesson or transferred
ones, just do not ever blame them, their old teachers (for transferred ones) and
ourselves especially beginner teachers. It will not make notes reading of
students better.The solution is re-teaching them as first lesson. Of course, it
needs much time, patiently and often rather difficult to train a new habit. The
students could be frustrate and complain but with fun game as I mentioned above,
kids usually enjoy the lesson again. If happens on teens or adults (so far, I
never found yet), we can support them by positive words so that they have new
spirit to continue their lesson. Moreover, as teachers, we should not ever stop
learning.
