Kingswood School Thurs. Jan. 17 11.40-12.40pm

Welcome to our guests Josh A., Lauren D., and Taylor in class today.

We did a big review for the level 2 students. You will be having your first assessment test next week.
Here's what you need to know:

1) Note naming on the Grand staff. Practice with this site note name trainer
Remember the rhyme for the treble clef, FACE, and for the bass clef, All Cows Eat Grass.
Also, remember Middle C.
2) Note and Rest Values. Quarter, Half, Whole and Eigth. Make sure you know how to draw these. Note/Rest Value Chart
3) Intervals. The distance between two notes. When counting by line and space to see what interval is between two notes make sure you include the stating note and the ending note.
4) You will be asked to play one of the songs we've learned together: Old Grey Goose, Twinkle,
On Top of Old Smokey, Pop Goes the Weasel, and Get Up.
5) Rhythm playbacks. Count 1+2+3+4+

For Laura:
You did the introduction to piano lesson in the Theory Thinker, and tried out some finger number and letter name tunes today. You also played some bongo boy and listened to us review how to read notes on the Grand staff. When you practice the sheet music I gave you, make sure to keep your fingers curved, and always keep a steady beat.

After the test next week, we'll send a certificate to you in the mail. It will say that you've completed Level 1 of MusIQ Club.

Thanks everyone. Good luck next week - I know you'll all do great.
