This week in Strings Class...

This will be our first official week of strings class. Don't forget to bring your instruments. Third graders, I'll tune your new instruments and put tapes on the fingerboard in class this week. We'll start using our practice charts this week too. So, make a good plan for how and where and when you're going to practice! Don't forget to reward yourself for meeting your goals.
