It looks like everyone’s in and out scales are coming along well. We talked about contrary and parallel motion in class. The scale and caterpillar song are contrary motion. Hickory Dickory Dock is parallel motion. Concentrate while you play these to keep your hands in the right place.
I’m impressed at your note and pattern-reading skills. Next year, we learn all the notes on the staff and this becomes even more fun!
Try putting your hands together when you play “Practice Every Day.” Your songs are sounding so good!
