Did You Know?

That a quality of sound which is interesting to the child is pitch? To isolate this quality, Montessori designed a set of black and white bells corresponding to the black and white keys on the piano. The bells are alike in every details except the pitch, which is heard when the child strikes them gently. A similar set of brown bells corresponds in pitch to the black and white set. The exercise consists of pairing the bells and later grading them in the order of the regular scale and then the half-tone scale.
