Teaching the first do re mi cycle.

I used the cards this morning to go through the first cycle with the 1st and 2nd grades, then I had them go to the piano and play with their right hand from middle c the solfeggio one person at a time.After my classes Renato encouraged me to used the pictures to make the association like door = do. then I notice that the colors go from red to blue, so after class I wrote the first cycle on the white board with pictures only in red and blue and I will have each student come to the white board and write the correct solfeggio
