Cooper John, almost 5 was created by DanielleMarks
Hi, I am hoping this is the correct place to record Coopers progress. We started him back again this week, after a long break. We only did a few things, we're just started him gently.

Guess key school;
50, 46, 54

Plus his five finger exercises.



Next week we plan on starting him on gentle piano, hot cross buns.

I have also been playing myself, I was wondering if I could create another thread for my progress and get some advice on which pieces to practice?

Dear Danielle,
The place is right!
I coulln't watch the video, though. It is set as private.
I would like to give you advice on pieces after seeing his current skills.

Good morning,

Cooper continued with his five finger exercises, guess key school and he started on hot cross buns with his right hand.

Guess Key School - 2 minutes
41
43
50
46
42

Gentle Piano
Hot cross buns, right hand
14/15, 34 - 15/15, 40
26/26, 42 - 26/26, 28
23/26, 40 - 24/26, 32
25/26, 34 - 23/26, 40
26/26, 26 - 25/26, 45

I will start Cooper with his left hand this week, unless you have another suggestion. I am not sure why you can't see the video as it is set on public. I will film him again this week and we can try again.

Just asking again because I'm not sure I made the question clear last week. I have bought the program primarily for Cooper to learn. Is it possible to get advice for myself as well, or would I need to buy a new subscription.

Best Regards, Danielle

Danielle, Cooper has excellent muscle memory! His fingers are very independanf.

Yes, you have to have your own diary,

Did you practice Ode to Joy, Jingle Bells, Hot cross buns and French song from Introductory level?
Can I see you playing?

Attention span is good. The numbers show stability. Is he singing solfeggio alone with practicing?

Gentle Piano
Hot cross buns, right hand
14/15, 34 - 15/15, 40
26/26, 42 - 26/26, 28
23/26, 40 - 24/26, 32
25/26, 34 - 23/26, 40
26/26, 26 - 25/26, 45

Could you explain this numbers?
On the left is first try and on the right is second? What is the figure after coma? Time?
Wish to see him playing!

I will start Cooper with his left hand this week, unless you have another suggestion.


Try to play R and L every day. It is important for his brain development. If it is hard, cut the piece in segments.

I am not sure why you can't see the video as it is set on public. I will film him again this week and we can try again.


I finally saw the video! Thank you!
