Henry

Fantastic work today Henry! Here is your homework for this week:

How long to practice: 5-10 minutes per day

What/How to practice:

Heart and Soul- amazing work on swing rhythms! Keep playing with Zaidie :)

Birthday Party- Review line 2; step-wise down and up from D, fingering: 2-1-2-3. Play loud.

Sandman’s Near- Review line 2; repeat each bar twice. Bar 2 is same notes and same fingering as bar 1 (2-1). Play soft. Do not slow down because it is soft, soft doesn’t mean slow.

How parents can support practice: Continuation of playing with family members is great. For the pieces in Teaching Little Fingers to Play, guide him in the speed and dynamics (loud vs soft). Remind him that the pieces should be the same speed, but one is loud and the other is soft.

See you on March 4 :)
