In
an age of technology, it just makes sense to use our smart phones when it comes
to organizing our school assignments. I am incorporating a smart phone app and
email site to send out classroom reminders! Don't worry everyone’s cell number
and email address is confidential.
Welcome to the GCAA Orchestra page!
Can you remember the first time you ever rode a bike? Some of us fell over the
first time, but driven to be successful, you got back up and tried it again
and again, until one faithful day; you are riding without a care in the
world! Practicing can be seen in the same light. You will never sound better or
feel comfortable with the instrument unless you spend consistent time
practicing.
Affective Practice Habits
Find a place that you can practice and not get disturbed.
Warm-up first on scales
Practice sections of the music that give you problems
first. Then put it all together.
Use a metronome to keep rhythm accurate.
Try recording yourself and listening to what you just
played. Ask you're self what was good and what needs improving.
Take a 5 min break if you are practicing for thirty minutes or
more.
