Educator’s Helper

This app is wonderful for performance using colored handbells. I connect it to the classroom screen and we play our colored pitched percussion by following songs we created or the ones that are included on the app.
If the creator of this app would make it so more than one note could be playing at a time with colors, they could sell it to educators for much more $. Also could change the colors of the colors to the plastic tube colors that would be an enormous seller as well.

Disappointed

Unfortunately, I did not like any of the features in this app. They do not ensure learning and students can easily make mistakes without realizing.

Good for learning notes, but not perfect...

------The good------
Excellent lessons, in fact the best lessons I've ever seen on basic music notation for any age.

Easy to create your own music.

Cute user interface.

------The bad------
No game to help kids memorize note location.

No piano keyboard mappings.

After playing a song, it's hard to play it again, as the replay option is the only one presented, and that just plays back your rendition of the song. This problem had my daughter in tears, so I hope it gets fixed in a subsequent release.

This would be a great app if the notes were correctly written on staff...the space notes should fill the space. The flat and sharp signings are not correctly written either. For line note sharps, the center of the sharp sign needs to have the staff line going through it. I am sorry that I purchased it.

This is a wonderful app for beginning musicians. The lessons are simple and lots of fun, but you should correct the time signatures which are wrong....Itsy bitsy spider should be 6/8. It would be a good idea to get a musician who had studied music theory to help correct the rhythms on Row your boat. I would use this in elementary school music classes if it was corrected.
