Excited for the new semester to start tomorrow. I thought I'd give an update as to what we've been working on prior to the start of a new semester.
Here is yesterdays practice and scores for my now 7 year old:
Warmup: Hannon, Chromatic scale (he has been choosing 2 exercises for warm up each day)
Practice of memorized pieces: Either Musette or Rock Group Boogie, also play Ode to Joy which is not as firmly committed to memory
Work on memorization of Robot Rock: he usually plays 3P one time and then 3PH 3 times (3P 162/164 t31, 3PH 162/164 t23, 164/164 t40, 160/164 t23)
Work on learning new song: He is learning Away with Melancholy from Simona repertoire #2 (3P 108/108 t23, 104/108 t28, 108/108 t23, 3PH 65/108 t97)
We then have been wrapping up with a few sight reading songs, just working our way through the nursery song book with 2 new songs each day: Mary had a Little lamb 5P 61/63 t59, London Bridge 45/52 t63
We definitely still have to work on sight reading more. I feel liek he can do it, but is just not as careful as he could be. We are looking forward to the structure of the new semester.
