Level 1A
After everyone but Ava and Bella were absent last week we had a full class this week! It's much better with a lot of kids!
Emily returned to do Lesson Three with Mr. Beethoven and the lesson was one of the tougher ones that she'll learn this semester - Rhythm. I find this lesson hard but apparently Emily didn't as she quickly blew through the lesson and the practice session with Miss Melody. She then went on to do the games and did the two from the previous weeks and the new game: Bongo Boy! Emily didn't beat him the first time but she eventually got to it. It's a tough game! Great job Emily!! Keep it up!!
Ava worked on Lesson Thirteen with Mr. Joplin and he taught her the notes that are close to Middle C. She played with Fingers 1 and 2 and did excellent. That's a really tough lesson but Ava got through it. Ava is really doing well with her lessons!
Aliyah worked on Lesson Eight with Mr. Bach and the lesson today was learning to play Double Notes - two notes at once. Aliyah did awesome at this lesson and really blew through it. Aliyah seems to be really enjoying her piano lessons and is a great helper during class. Keep going Aliyah!
Bella worked with Mr. Bach today to go back over some fundamentals and really did much better. She was comfortable and happy and completed her lesson and played some of her favorite games, like the Train Game and the Coconut Game.
Cameron worked on Lesson Fourteen today which was learning more notes near Middle C which included using Fingers 1, 2 and 3 in both hands. Not an easy lesson but Cameron got through it. The Musical Alphabet was also incorporated into the lesson and it was part of a new game that was introduced to Cameron.
After everyone finished their lessons everyone came over to watch Cameron play the game and then they played as well. The Musical Alphabet is so important to know so I was happy that everyone took an interest and wanted to learn it. The Musical Alphabet for the parents wondering is the notes on the keyboard. They go from A to G and then repeat again up the keyboard A to G.
Great class this week!!
