Lesson #12 No class next week because of Spring Break! Parents come the following week and final payment is due! If you are unsure if you are caught up on your payments or not, please just ask. All entries for the Spirit Month drawing are due this Saturday by 8:00pm. NO EXCEPTIONS. You MUST fill out this form if you wish to enter the drawing. You can text me a picture of your BINGO card if you didn’t bring it to class. I will be printing each child’s composition in a book that I will present each child at the recital. I will need to finalize their compositions this week so they are exactly the way the students want them, and so they have time to practice them. I want them to feel confident playing them in front of an audience. If any changes need to be made, please let me know ASAP! In class this week we got to experience harmonic dictation. We listened to more than one note played at a time and wrote it in our books. The students are getting really good at knowing the difference between how the red, blue and yellow chords sound!
Our compositions are coming along great! Please be sure your student is introducing their piece (as it is written in their homework book) each time they practice it so they can be well prepared for our recital! The introduction should be memorized, but their composition doesn’t need to be… although it will help them feel more confident if they do! We are getting so good at playing our scales in F Major, G Major, and A minor. Check out this fun video to see what it would look like to play your scales with your feet!!! Have a musical day! -Ms. Bethany 🙂 |
