Thanks!

Warm Ups

Down bow, stop drop, and up bow practice. Ten of those
Bread song to see if all the bowing is correct.

Twinkles, each one once.
Lightly Row, twice.

Jingle Bells--do each part 10 times.

1. E-E-3-1-A (Jingle all the way) the last bit of the song.  Sing it first with violin rest position.

2. Try singing the song with the regular words and finish with E-E-3-1-A.

3. Break it up into small bits.  2-E Down-up; 2-E-A.  Down-up-down.

Try tightening the sting if you've added a lot of rosin to the bow--it will clarify the tone.

Put a new sticker for finger 1.  Make sure not to take the bow off the string during the song.
