We had a very good class today. The level 1 students, Miguel and Erika, were especially sounding well today. Chloe completed her composition assignment. I'm looking forward to next week where I am sure I'll be hearing compositions by the rest of you, Gabriel, Victoria, Anthony, Hannah, Rpse and Jeremey. To print off a new copy click HERE.

- Warmed up with C major scales for the right hand and left hand.
- Practiced songs, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Old Grey Goose and learned a new song, Pop goes the Weasel. Talked about playing loud and soft, legato (smooth) and staccato (detached).
