Yet another fingering chart

I thought I would quickly share this fingering chart I made.  I have been loving my dry erase packets and have been using them a lot in my class.  (You can read about them HERE)  I have a paper with a large staff inside my pockets right now, and I am going to use this fingering chart on the opposite side to help me teach new notes and to check for understanding.  I realize that I did not leave a spot for all possible naturals and accidentals.  That is because my beginners have tapes on their instruments and I want students to see how to find notes in relation to their tapes.  If I ask them to label a C natural on the A string, I want them to see that the note is NOT on a tape and it requires an adjustment.  Students will draw their own circles for those notes.
