FIRST PRACTICE BLOG 10/2/26
WELCOME TO YOUR VERY FIRST PRACTICE BLOG VIOLINISTS!
Each week I "shout out" one or more students in each class! This week I would like to shout out: Ruth - I loved how you requested “lento” as one of the three things I play in the “Three Things” game. I love your musical vocabulary!
I forgot to give you your homework! I had a sheet with the parts of the violin - that is okay, I will give it to you next week!
NECESSARY MATERIALS
PLEASE BRING THIS TO THE NEXT CLASS (it is okay if it is for next Wednesday and not Monday)
MUSIC STAND for standing practice at home.
You do not need to bring this stand to class.
Violinists and families - this week it is so important that you begin the habit of practice for this year. Please take out your violin 4 times for practice between 10/2 -10/9 for just 5-10 minutes every time. I want you practicing practice! This will make practicing much easier later in the year and is a great life skill!
This week in violin we:
1. Practice our Violin Foot Position
Practiced safely taking violins out of cases
2 Got our violin sizes
3 Learned violin safety tips and parts of the violin
4 Played “Three Things”
Practice:
You can access the sheet music I handed out HERE
5-10 minutes a day (this week might be more of a 3-5 minute week)
Happy Practicing!
