Piano Group Class

Piano Group Class

With blurry eyes I saw the door open and a dark figure was standing in the doorway.  As my eyes adjusted to the dark.  I saw my mom standing, beckoning for me to get up.  She asked if I was awake and I answered saying

“I'm awake.”  

I glanced at my watch.  5:00 am.  I got out of my bed.  Still half asleep I walked out and got dressed.  

I walked into the piano room and got out the books I was going to use.  I turned on the metronome to 120 and practised Hanon to warm my fingers up.  

It was 5:15 am. so my mom pushed the ‘call’ button to call my teacher on face-time.(my mom is also my teacher.  I Learn a lot from my mom as well.)  It didn't work.  So my mom tried again.  It didn't work again.  Finally after several more tries it worked.  Yay!  

I saw the rest of the girls my age waiting to play.  My teacher asked me if I wanted to be first, or if I wanted to wake up a bit more before I played.(since everyone else was in America it was about 12:15, noon, for them.)  I answered saying I wanted to play now.

I played.  I was nervous but I played even better than I practised.  I made only 3 mistakes!  That was a score of -3!

By the end of group class no one else had a higher score than -3!  That meant I was the winner!  I was very happy.  

At the end of group class, everyone got a chocolate bar.(except me because I am in New Zealand and everyone else was in America)  My teacher said she would save my TWO chocolate bars.(I got two because I won)

It was a fun group class and I'm glad I went.

Super SLC's

A SLC is a student lead conference, it is a time where the students have a chance to show and explain their learning.  My dad came to my SLC because mt mom was out of town.  I showed my art, writing, reading, Te Ara Tika (or WIT), and my way of setting out my day (planning).  I enjoyed my SLC.  It can help me understand my learning better as well (not just the person listening learns things.)
This is a photo of me explaining my book to my dad and little sister (isn't she so cute!).
