Lesson Comments
Quinn did extremely well in this session. He focused very well and practiced forming the chords and playing them with his strumming technique. He even, on his own, formed and played the G7 chord, so he now knows 3 of the simple chords.
Ana became frustrated again with her lack of control over her ring fingers. She does not have the strength or motor skills yet to move them independently of her other fingers. This takes lots of time and practice. I explained to her that she was doing very well and that if she just keeps trying that the exercises will help her to develop that strength and control. She just has to be patient with herself.
When Ana became upset, we switched over to playing some sing along songs while they danced and played the percussion instruments.

Lesson Comments
Anna showed an excellent work and understanding and suddenly she started crying, telling that Quinn gets more attention and that she needs also help. She completed the work and she didn't need help, she already got a special star for great work (not Quinn)and she was ahead/comparing her with Quinn, later she said that she missed mom.
