Nice to meet you William, Dylan, Steven, Justin and Ivan!
We got a lot of good work done today.
Level 1 (Ivan):
You are learning the song 'Old Grey Goose' and practicing your Note Naming.
Also, start familiarizing yourself with Note Values.
We practiced some 4-beat rhythm playbacks and talked about some ways of sightreading music bu step and by skip.
We also learned how to play a C major scale, hands separately.
Try playing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' on your piano at home.
Level 2 (William):
You are learning the song 'Let it Be' by the Beatles.
We played some Grand Staff note placement game and also reviewed Note Values.
You played your C major scale in contrary motion for me - excellent coordination!
We also reviewed 'On top of Old Smokey' from last term, and did the Theory Thinker lesson on Rests. Finally, you spent some time in the improvisation room in the CMJ software.
Level 3 (Justin, Steven and Dylan):
You learned about leger lines today.
We learned a new song called 'The baseball game' and played a game of 'Faceoff' with leger line/space notes.
You reviewed the song 'Daydream Believer' and brushed up on 'Ode to Joy'.
Great playing.
Finally, you learned a new scale 'C Chromatic'. Remember the fingering: 1-3-1-3-1-2-3-1-3-1-3-1-2. Then, back down.
I look forward to seeing you again next week! Happy practicing :)
