With today being our last day of class for the semester we didn't have anything new that we went over. Rather, we reviewed many of the previously learned concepts. Thank you parents for your Parent Evaluation forms. They are extremely helpful in improving with each semester. Now that this semester is over let's take a break and get ready for blue bugs semester on January 4th. Thank you for a WONDERFUL fall!

New This Week -- Lesson 14
Lesson #14
1. Learn Notation for Mi, Re, Do and Sol, Sol, Do: We already know what they sound like, but today we learned what they look like on the staff. Some verbal cues for this that I use are "baby steps down" while singing each note of mi, re, do and "same, same, leap" while singing sol, sol, do.
2. Play Along with Classical Piece: We used our pointer finger and thumb to imitate the triangle in our Waltz of the Flowers song. If practicing at home this part happens the second time that the butterfly sings.
We are making musicians!

SUPER exciting!
Alright friends, check this one out! I am sometimes the lucky recipient of drawings and pictures from my cute LPM students. I was given this one last week by one of my 4 year old students. Do you see what it is? A MAJOR SCALE! It is missing one note, but other than that PERFECT! These concepts are sinking in and becoming part of their little brains! Hurray! Isn't this program amazing?! Please feel free to share with me your "at home" success stories too!
