Simplify to Amplify: Focus on Functional Scales

Utilizing the Law Based Minor scale simplifies music teaching by maintaining a connection to familiar major scales, particularly in middle school education where the majority of music is tonal. Rather than focusing on the complexity of chromatic scales, which may not have practical application for students, emphasis should remain on major and minor keys. This approach values effective sight reading and practical application during instrumental practice, ensuring students gain necessary skills without overcomplicating their learning process with extensive syllable instruction.
