Lesson Day 4/Google Day 5~

Hello! Long time no talk! Today, Sammy and I gave our 4th lesson! Who knew a month could pass by so quickly? Yesterday, during the Google Day, Sammy and I planned what we were going to do for our lesson today. We made a quiz for the kids to make sure they didn't forget the notes that they learned last class: FACE and EGBDF. When we presented them with the quiz, we were thrilled that they did not forget and that they could comprehend everything. Yesterday during the Google Day, we also finalized the piece that we are going to play: Jingle Bells! The kids were so excited when we told them! In the beginning of the lesson, we briefly reviewed rhythms and got straight to playing, as there was lots to do! Sammy and I started out by clapping the rhythm with the kids and then breaking off into our respective groups to learn the notes. I successfully taught the flutes the first 3 notes out of the 5 total notes in the song. Next class, we will learn the last two notes and will be able to play the whole piece! We are so excited!
