Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Perform a full piano arrangement, coordinating both hands through a two-song medley.

  • Accompany the melody using the printed guitar chord symbols.

  • Sing or play through the complete lyric line for both "Silver and Gold Have I None" and "My God Is So Big."

Teaching tips

  • Learn each song separately before practicing the transition between them, since the arrangement moves directly from one piece into the other.

  • Pair a piano student with a guitarist for ensemble practice, since chord symbols are printed above the staff throughout.

  • Review the notation with students who are used to simplified arrangements before assigning it, since the piano part is a full score rather than a lead sheet.

Skills covered

  • Piano performance — students play a full-score arrangement across 7 pages, coordinating both hands through a two-song medley.

  • Chord reading — printed guitar chord symbols (G, C, D7, A minor, D) give students practice reading chord letters alongside standard notation.

  • Song-to-song transition — the arrangement moves directly from "Silver and Gold Have I None" into "My God Is So Big," requiring a smooth transition between pieces.

  • Lyric-and-melody coordination — full lyrics are printed under the melody line for singers performing alongside the piano.
