Theory

                  Today since it was still the second meeting in music class, our teacher told us the things that we will be doing this term 1. He discusses to us the objective, unit question, areas of interactions, criterions and schedule timeline. It took the teacher quite a long time about these things but even if it was boring, this introduction if I can say is very useful for us. It gives us a bigger picture what we will be doing in music this term; what are the expectations, what are the things/criterions that we will be counted. I think that this is very important for us especially for people who are serious in music and want to get a high marks in the end of the semester witch I think is a smart thing to do. There will be a lot of things that will be going on in music class especially in the activities that we will be doing and the assessments that will be assessed. I believe that archiving a high mark for this music class will not be that difficult if we want to do it and serious about it. I hope that I can good grades in this class. Our teacher also made a short review test on scales and inversions, I was told to make the f major part for thins review test. I think that is was good to get my mind back to thinking what I was last school year doing the same test. I hope that I will be able to enjoy this music class and continue it.

Music Class

                  Today was our first music class in this semester. I was looking forward to meet again my violin teacher from last school year. Since it was the first class, we really did not have prepared our instruments except our violin, since there is no new student in the string class, our teacher did not need to explain again the things needed in the class. The teacher told us to bring next time into class and made told us some changes that are going on. I think that it is good to be back into the class where we are able to play again our violin and ready to open and play again our violin. I’m looking forward to enjoy my violin while learning it so I can be better at it and to be able to learn new technic in violin.

Theory 

                  Today is the first day of music class for this new school year. Our music theory teacher is Mr. Herry. The class I may say is very full and crowded with students. Our first made an introduction for music in grade 10. I think that the standards and expectation is higher that the last school year in grade 9. There are a lot of new challenges and a lot more things that will be covered in the music class. I think that we also do not have enough time in his semester with the things that are going to be covering. Our teacher also told us how he is going to get our scores in the music class with the criteria and how to achieve this high scores and the test that will be done. The teacher also told us to do the blogging as well to write our reflections on. I think that the scoring and the things that will be test is fare, because I think that it is challenging enough. Our teacher started the singing assessment, by telling to start searching the song that we want to sing and try to get the -1. Closing to the class, the teacher invaded the new students to introduce themselves and the teachers in the music department that will be teacher us this school year. I think that it is nice for everyone to get to know one another with the teachers and students. I am looking forward to this music class this school year and I hope I will be able to cope with the lessons and tasks.
