When you play young hunter try playing with the metronome set to 90 BPM then 100 BPM when you are comfortable. Remember to match your playing with the clicks. Don’t slow down and don’t speed up! You can also continue your work with Half time show. You can begin practicing with a metronome set to 90- 100 BPM. Focus your attention on the last system and be sure to leave space for the quarter rests. For Jack in the beanstalk you can introduce a metronome set to 100 BPM.
How parents can help:
Encourage your child to have a daily practice routine and ensure that they are filling out their homework logs correctly. In addition to the online homework posts, I recommend that each student keep and maintain a homework journal where they can fill in how long they practice and what they worked on that week. You can decorate it to make it fun!
