Term 1 Week 1 (22 - 24 July 2013)

THEORY

Monday was the first day of school. We had music class right after the orientation, but we only had it for about 20 minutes because the orientation ended at 10 o'clock. In theory class we introduced ourselves: we had to say our full name, nick name, our favorite type of music genre, our favorite musician/artist, our address, our hobby, and one unique thing about ourselves. We didn't do much after that though.
On Tuesday, we only had one music practical session and Mr. Herry said that he wanted it to be an "Ensemble" session, which means we had to bring our instruments and we planned to play the instruments together.
On Wednesday, we had two "tests" we had to do. They were basically reviews from last year about accidentals and things like that. I think I did well because I didn't make any mistakes in both of the tests. Mr. Herry also gave us a booklet on Arpeggios & Scales according to our instrument.

INSTRUMENT

On Monday there wasn't any instrument class because we only had 20 minutes for music class, so we didn't have time for instrument class.
On Tuesday there wasn't any instrument class either because it was an "Ensemble" session.
On Wednesday we started reading the Arpeggios & Scales booklet that Mr. Herry gave us. It wasn't hard for me, but I wasn't fluent in it. Basically, this term we're focusing on sight reading, therefore Mr. John gave us a "Rondo in D" to read. We played the Guitar 2 in class and Mr. John asked us to try and play the Guitar 1 at home, so we can practice.
