2. A goal of mine for this year is to get better at playing more difficult pieces on the guitar. 
3. I am not working on anything right now, but I want to learn how to play more classical pieces this year. 
4. Thing I have at home that will help me is a guitar (from last year), garageband, and printer access. 
5. I don’t have questions right now. ]]> 2020-09-14 19:34:07 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/745602909 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/751176653 1. In the video Victor Wooten talks about how music is a form of expression. In the video he says "...language works best when we have something interesting to say." Here he was comparing music to language. I think music helps you express how you feel when you don't know how to say it in words.
2. Another interesting thing Victor Wooten talked about was how you can't really learn to play by following a strict regimen. In order for you to get better at playing you have to make mistakes. Under a strict regimen you might learn how to play but it will take a long time. 
3. Music comes from the musician not the instrument. The musician is the one making the music because they're the ones playing what they feel. In the video Victor Wooten said, "They can make you laugh or cry, think or question, and can speak to one or many."  

We can relate Wooten's approach to music to our class because when we're creating we are writing what we feel with the music notes, and when we're listening to others play we are trying to here what they are trying to say. ]]> 2020-09-16 12:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/751176653 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/780572023 1. 3 goals I have for this week is to work on Malagueña. I want to get back to reading note music. And the last goal I have is get better at playing two notes at the same time.

One of my biggest take away from the first week is learning the cords and notes again. This will help me when I’m reading the music and learning it. 
2. A challenge I faced last week was forgetting the notes and how to play them. I approach this challenge by looking back at my guitar packet from last year. 
3. Some goals I have for this week is to learn more of the music, learn the notes again, and to get better at playing two notes at a time. 
4. I plan to accomplish these goals by reviewing my packet and music from last year and practicing more with the guitar. ]]> 2020-10-02 00:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/796694243 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/810385710 I didn’t reach my goal this week.

2. Learn up to measure 45.
3. Play measures 19-30 faster
I plan on accomplishing these goals by working on each part at a time and by using the metronome whenever I practice in order to get faster. ]]> 2021-04-16 13:48:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1425415214 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540513272 I didn't achieve my weekly goals, I still have to practice a lot to be performance ready. I didn't face any challenges this week.]]> 2021-05-19 16:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540513272 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540514473 I am planning on performing Malagueña. 
3 Goals
1. Play up to measure 45.
2. Work on transitions 
3. Get faster at getting to the cords. 
I plan on accomplishing these goals by focusing on just one thing at a time while practicing. ]]> 2021-05-19 16:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540514473 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540515644 I am getting better at getting the transitions smoother, but I think I still need to work on getting to the right cords on time. I didn't have any challenges this week, but next week I have to perform so I also need to work more with the metronome. ]]> 2021-05-19 16:59:07 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540515644 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540516842 3 goals
1. Work with the metronome 
2. Be ready to perform 
3. Work on getting to the cords faster. 
I plan on accomplishing these goals by always working on this piece when I have free time. My piece needs to be performance ready by Wednesday so I can perform. ]]> 2021-05-19 16:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540516842 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540518108 I started to understand how to work with the metronome so I have been working with that. I think it is getting better so now I need to work with the metronome on the other parts as well. At first the metronome was a little challenging, but as I figured out the speed I was comfortable with and made it faster from there it was fine. I also performed this week and I think it went well.]]> 2021-05-19 16:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540518108 hofelia81 https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540519550 3 goals
1. work on getting faster with the metronome on measures 19-30
2. Start using the metronome on measures from 31-45
3. Get better at getting to the cords faster.
I plan on accomplishing these goals by focusing on little parts at a time when practicing and then putting it all together and playing it together. ]]> 2021-05-19 16:59:57 UTC https://padlet.com/hofelia81/f428gcr96elai54z/wish/1540519550
