Beginning Band Lessons

The new group of beginning band members have all had their first lessons and now are all able to carefully put their instruments together and (holding their instruments properly:) play a couple notes. The next step is to get them attending lessons and practicing a lot. The regular lesson schedule is available here. If you use this schedule along with this October calendar you can see what days your child will need his/her instrument at school. I've also included some practice tips for students and the parents/guardians helping them. I hope these help your child to have a successful start to band and as always if you have questions or concerns, please contact me in whichever method is convenient to you. dplasek@pp.k12.mn.us or call at 218-338-6011 ext. 134.
