I have to just say... I LOVE this book! For $34.95, Bright Ideas Press sells a book of 32 weekly lessons that span 6 eras of music and composers such as Bach, Handel, Mozart, Strauss and 22 others. All the information needed to teach a new lesson each week is included within the pages of this book, including reproducibles to make a lapbook for each era and coloring pages for younger students as well as timelines, quizzes, and note-taking pages for older children.

Seven year old, Ellen says, "I liked it! I don't know what else to say...."
While we are not keeping up with a weekly lesson, we are enjoying working through A Young Scholar's Guide to the Composers. I would definitely recommend this book for anyone looking for a great way to teach their children classical music.
