💚NFPER - memorize the acronym and the words below:
Notes - correct notes
Fingering - correct fingering
Position - good hand and sitting position

💚What is a “Spot?”
A Spot is when we zoom in to a small section that needs work. And we do it at least 3 times in-a-row correctly each day.

REDO page 8
Prepare pages 12 and 13
Remember to do the repeat at the end of each assignment.
Fingering is a bit off. Please study the fingering carefully.
First, clap the beat (always, even if there are half notes) and “ta” the rhythm.
Second, count four steady beats out loud then play the notes with the correct fingering to a steady beat.
NO FASTER THAN METRONOME 80 PER QUARTER NOTE.
Keep the bubble.
💛Alphabet - Forward and Backward by Skips
Set metronome to m.m. 63 and practice saying the letter names forward and backward by skips (or 3rds) beginning from C. Go to the next C and return to the original C.
C, E, G, B, D, F, A, C, C, A, F, D, B, G, E, C
This must be three times in-a-row correctly!
Once you can do it at m.m. 63, move to 66, 69.
