Practice checklists are handed out to students every week in class.
There are two sides to each checklist: a list of what their assignments are for the week, and a worksheet that reinforces concepts learned in class.
Scans of the checklist can be found on your student's Google Classroom page.
Please make sure your student completes the checklist and you sign it prior to their next class.

I understand that students are busy, and are unable to practice every day. The checklist is a way for them to track what we learned in class and to aid them at home. It is also a way for me to track what they are practicing, and to identify any areas of weakness or misconceptions to better aid their understanding.
I recommend that students practice 10-15 minutes every day for 6 days a week: the more they practice, the more they will improve on their instrument.
