Dora nods. "There are five notes in a pentatonic scale, and twelve notes in a chromatic scale. Most traditional scales only have the seven notes, though.
"Would you two like to sing a scale?"

Repeating the words in her head she wondered aloud, "Why are there different notes in different scales? Are some scales more complicated then others or something?" She pondered this new piece of information.
Keru scribbled madly on the paper. Ink flying around on the notes.
"Oh yes! I'd love to sing a scale!" said Evere cheerfully.

"How would you sing them? Do they sound the same or different like on the flute if you hold the different buttons." Pushing down on the buttons reiko wonder what the difference is. "Why is there so many scales?"

"Some scales are more complicated than others. The chromatic scale has twelve different notes that are separated by half steps. It's made up of all the notes in the major and minor scales."
"It's easy to sing a scale, Reiko. The notes you sing will sound the same as the notes you would play on a flute. We can sing a scale by finding the first note-" Dora blows on her pitchpipe once more "and singing it, then singing the next note and so on."

"Ok ^-^" Going through the notes in her head, reiko tries and gets ready to sing with them.

"Yes, half steps are shorter than regular steps. They are equal to half a regular step." Dora smiles at Evere. "Feel free to ask all the questions you like."
"We're going to sing the scale now, ready?" She plays a note on the pitchpipe to start them off. "Do re me fa so la ti do."

"Oh okay!" She smiled back.
Repeating it slowly she sang, "Do...re...mi...fa...so...la...ti...do." Voice growing higher with every note. "Did I sing it right, Miss Dora?"

"She grows up so fast" Keru wiped her eyes. "Oh!" Keru returned to writing her notes.
Evere beamed. "Yay!" Happy by this accomplishment, she continued to hum it softly to make sure she remembered it just right.
