About this set

Everything you need to take a student from “what are those sharps at the front?” to naming any key signature on sight — major and relative minor, in both clefs. The unit runs in three stages: sharp keys and the last-sharp rule, flat keys and the second-to-last-flat rule, then all 15 keys mixed. Every stage works the same way — a student guide introduces the rule, identification and notation worksheets practice it, and a cumulative checkpoint checks progress before the next stage builds on it. Every worksheet asks for the major key AND its relative minor, because treating minor as a separate topic later is exactly why students find it hard. Matched A and B versions throughout (retest, make-up work, or a second attempt on fresh questions), answer keys for every sheet, and a Teacher Guide covering how to run the sequence and why it's built this way.
