We started our session by reviewing "Three Black Ants," Gracyn's assigned piece from last lesson. Next we went over three additional songs in another book and discussed half notes. Gracyn played the pieces nicely, counting two beats for each half note. We also reviewed proper hand position, which Gracyn demonstrated well. Finally we went over and practiced "The Knuckle Song," and played a game called "the penny game," which encourages and reinforces careful practice.
