We had a good class this week. We played French Folk Song, Twinkle and Are You Sleeping. After that we learned a song I called "Are You Grumpy"! We learned a new note. It is the F natural.  Violin and Viola - we learned a low second finger. The second finger will touch the first finger instead of the 3rd finger.  I call it a "low 2".  Cello - you use the 2nd finger instead of the 3rd finger Bass - you use 2nd finger instead of 4th finger.  We play "Are you sleeping" except with the new note!  "Are You Grumpy"! Violin and Viola - when doing the "morning bells are ringing", I want you  to practice it like this. When you go to the D string with the 3rd finger, only put down the 3.  Not the 1 or 2. This way the second finger can go to its new spot easily.           (only 3) 0 1 0 3 STOP Once you have done that, practice what comes next.  We then finished most of the solos.  ----------------------------------------------- Practice for this week.  Are You Grumpy - MAKE SURE YOUR FINGERS ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE    Violin and Viola - practice the spot described above - 10X                               Play whole song - 5X    Cello and Bass - 8X French Folk Song - 4X Are You Sleeping - 3X Twinkle Duet! - 4X
