Homework

During class we will cover new material in the method book and rehearse concert music. Students are expected to practice AT LEAST 15 minutes a day reviewing what was covered in class. Practicing is ESSENTIAL because every day we build on what we already know. The more you do something, the better you will understand it! It may be beneficial to establish your "practice space" somewhere that is quiet and free of distractions.

We will also assign weekly "pass-offs" for the students to learn and play in class for a grade. Playing tests MUST be done on the due date but can be done as soon as the student is ready. I will be available to hear pass-offs after school upon previous arrangement. I will also listen to students who wish to retest for a better grade as long as they have practiced and know they are prepared.
