Documents
If you visit THIS LINK you will find scale sheets for each instrument. I haven't looked through all of them, but from what I can tell the "concert band" column is one octave scales and the "symphonic band/wind ensemble" column has more octaves. However, even those still have one octave scales for some instruments. You can get two octave scale sheets HERE.
Obviously, if you have your own scale sheet at home, you can use that. This is just for people that don't have one at home.
I'm sure you can google "Flute Scale sheet" etc and find a million different versions! If you are looking at this page with your phone, you literally have the whole internet in your hand! :)
