This week we will begin learning our first songs on our chosen instruments. Students will receive a First Tunes sheet with several songs we are working on. "Hot Cross Buns" is our goal for Monday, and all students will have a quick check-up on their posture, hand positions, and tone. On Thursday, students will begin the Mastery Tunes. Each student will record one of these Mastery Tunes next week for a project grade, and are encouraged to practice moving their left hand fingers correctly on an "air" violin/viola/cello/bass. |
