Week 3 Notes

Review of the last two lessons

The proper way to hold the bow is just like biting the carrot.


The bow thumb tip goes half-way on the hair of the bow and the silver part next to the hair.

Is this right?

Not this!

Practice 10 bow holds daily. Pretend to stir the soup. Mention some of the things you want to add to the soup.

Then practice "Wheels on the Bus" and move it around your face.

Do the "Bread Song" tuck-a-tuck-a STOP STOP.

Practice moving the violin from under your right arm to under your chin.

Finger Pops with the hands first and then finger pop on the violin.

Rubber band/Styrofoam installed on the violin--this week.
