Just a few housekeeping items to share……
1. Starting the week of Oct 22nd, I will be expecting that all band students have their practice times recorded and signed off on (just like the reading) by a parent or guardian EACH AND EVERY WEEK. The required homework is 100 minutes of practice per week and the page for recording these times can be found on the back of the instrument booklet I handed out in the first lesson. I recommend 20 minutes per day, 5 days a week.
2. All students will begin working out of the Essential Elements 2000 book next week or two as well. If you have not yet purchased a copy, you may buy one from me @ $8.99 (percussion is $13.99). Those students who have already paid for books will receive them next week.
3. BAND REHEARSALS will start on Tuesday, October 23rd and will be on all subsequent B, D & F days. You will be getting a monthly calendar to help keep track of when your child needs to have their instrument. Please visit my website for updates!
