Do you remember the practice charts from the first lesson? Don't forget to use them! Consistent practice is the most important part of learning to play the piano. I recommend practicing 6 days a week for about 20-30 minutes. (Do warm ups + play each song at least 5 times.)
Practice assignments for this week:
WARM UP
- Continue warming up each day with your Major scales (C, G, F, D, A) Practice scales using a different technique each time (technique book pg 10-15)
- Start your SIGHT READING BOOK and do the first 12 exercises (page 6-15). Remember, normally you just play 1 per day, and don't "practice" them like you would with a regular song. You are practicing READING the notes, rhythm and dynamics. (This week we are doing 2 per day so we can catch up.)
PRACTICE
Quincy:
- Lesson book pg 41-43 (If you have any questions, review pg 12-17 in your theory book and pg 29, 34-35 in your lesson book.)
- Pick one popular song to practice (pg 4 or 14 are easier choices, but you can pick whatever you want. Look at pg 2 for help).
- Pick one performance song to practice (pg 12 or 13).
- Review your Easter Song and ask your mom or dad to record a video of you playing it.
- Work on playing “Kiss the girl” with both hands.
