What to practice: Marching, Gallop Away

How to practice:

Marching- Keep practicing with the metronome. Be aware of steps and skips. Work on the transition from the end of line 1 to the beginning of line 2 so that you don’t stop between lines.

Gallop Away- Try at home. Be aware of 1, 2, and 3-beat notes. Keep fingers on their keys and follow along with the music.

How parents can support practice: Listen and guide as needed. Encourage her to look at the music rather than her hands.

See you next week :)
