The 100 Days of Practice Challenge is an annual event that begins on February 1st and runs until May 11th. The challenge entails practicing for at least 5 minutes every day. A student can technically complete this challenge any day of the year, but creating an official event allows students to complete the challenge with peers, talk about their progress, and feel a sense of community.
To join the challenge, keep track of your days on one of our official practice charts. You can print a copy of the sheet below. Parents or guardians do need to sign off for each individual day to confirm you practiced. These sheets are due no later than May 19th to count towards the challenge.
While the skills you build along the way should be a prize enough, I do offer prizes to students who make it to all 100 days (grand prize and "100 days" pin), or at least 90 days. All students who join receive a certificate of participation with their final count of days.
Sometimes we don't have our instrument with us for a whole day, but that doesn't mean we can't practice! There are lots of different way to practice, check out some of the ideas below, and feel free to add your own!
