Practice Expectations:
Practicing is essentially the biggest piece of "homework" an orchestra student has. What is most important is that students develop a practice routine that works well for themselves and their family. Every week we will fill out our Guided Practice Plan in our Orchestra Binders. This is your "to do" list for the week. Practice should happen OFTEN--I recommend AT LEAST 4 days a week. Occasionally, you will be asked to perform a "play assessment" for me on your instrument--these check-ins are put in place to monitor your progress so I can give you individual feedback.
