This week we did introductions and went over the class disclosure. I need all the students to have an orchestra sign up sheet with a phone number and email if possible. Also, your child should have brought home a green sheet home that explains a few things needed for orchestra and classroom etiquette. Please, sign the back page and return that to me by Thurs. 12th. If you don't have a green paper, email me and I will send you it as an attachment.
We also talked about how an orchestra sets up and came up with a class set up plan. Then we talked about time signatures and how many beats each note gets. We also counted/clapped out some different rhythms. We will do a lot of counting and clapping and review rhythms every class time.
Next Tues. 10th we will learn note names for the 3 different clefs.
Thurs. 12th students need to bring there instruments. I will be putting finger tape on the fingerboard and tune the instruments. Also, we will talk about instrument care and correct positions. Please, contact me if you are having difficulty finding an instrument for your student or if they won't have one ready for Thurs.
