Good work again today gentlemen. I can’t believe that next week is our last class of the term. You have learnt a lot this term. At our last class, Itai worked on ant tunnels with Mr. Joplin, completing lesson 12. Remember to keep your finger on their ‘tip toes’ to make sure there is always [...]

Good work today. You got lots of practise time in and we covered some more music history. Your rhythm clap backs are getting better and better. I was very pleasantly surprised that you found clapping back a 3 or 6 count measure just as easy as the 4 beat measures you have been practising until [...]

Great work today everybody! Your music reading is coming right along and your posture was beautiful today. Remember to sit with your back straight, shoulders and elbows relaxed and fingers rounded even when you are practising, so that you don’t develop any bad habits – it’s hard to get rid of them once your body [...]

Good work today gentlemen! You certainly accomplished a lot. Itai completed lesson 2, which introduced middle C. You had no trouble finding the groups of two black notes and three black notes and did very well at locating all the C’s on the keyboard. Remember: “2 black notes, down to C” and you’ll always be [...]

Welcome to all students and thank you for the great work you did today. Itai completed lesson 1 with Mr. Beethoven, who we learned a little bit about today. Do you remember where Mr. Beethoven lived? How about something that happened to him that caused him some frustration and added a challenge, but also lots of [...]

Another good class! I’m glad you didn’t forget anything over the break. We did some 4 note playbacks today to give you an extra challenge and you did a great job with them. Keep listening for whether the notes are getting higher or lower and if they are stepping or skipping down. Your scales are [...]
