What a week this has been, even though we were only in session three days, it seems like it has been longer than a normal week! I heard some great evidence of practicing and working hard from many students this week, thank you for encouraging them to practice.
- Practice cards are due Monday, signed by you
- The scale olympics continue and the competition is heating up. Keep encouraging your child to play scales for you in order to be ready to play in class.
