No Rhythmic Supplements in Ch. 3
Elizabeth just raised an excellent point- there are no rhythmic exercises in Chapter 3. When students are learning how to read music, there is always some form of activity pertaining to clapping a beat or rhythm. I wonder if this would be something done in class? We should discuss how to incorporate rhythmic exercises into Chapter 3 sometime soon.

Also, there's essentially no ACTUAL music reading of any kind before the improvisation is set up. Why bother learning all this if you're never going to have to read any music. Even a simple melody or two to be played on piano until the student can recognize it would be helpful.
