  • Play hands together starting in the B section first
  • practice m. 19-20 three times in a row without a mistake, if you make a mistake you start the counting over again
  • any places in the music where you always play it wrong first, copy that measure or two measures on staff paper, then play it while visualizing

Learn Clementine Sonatina p. 16-17

  • Count out loud
  • Hands separately
  • Look for chords, scales, and arpeggios
  • write in ALL the fingering on the copy I gave you. Do 1 line of music per day

Tarantelle p. 34-35

  • Count in your head
  • if you have to look down at your hands be sure to look back up at the score so you don’t have pauses from one idea to the next
  • work on dynamics
  • work on balance between the hands based on which one is important
