Student Instructions

Please submit your choice of scale. Simply tap on the add button to start the activity. Use the label tool to type the name of your scale. Be sure to add the information if it is major or minor! On the staff, use the drawing tool to add the key and notes. **TIP**If you are on a non-touchscreen device, select the pen size that is the 3rd largest--when you click the trackpad once for your note on the staff, you will get a perfect circle! Use the smallest pen size to draw in the key signature/stems on the notes. (Be sure to use proper stem direction). Use the label tool to add information about your scale and your recording (you could write if you found this scale challenging and/or if you are going to record more than one octave). Use the mic tool to record yourself playing the scale. Be sure to take the scale at a speed that you feel comfortable with. Use a metronome if needed. When you are finished recording, simply tap the check tool twice to submit your activity.
