숙제 제공
Students are required to post a video, question, or theory assignment in the classroom each week to show they are understanding the content. Students wishing to send the video privately to the teacher for feedback is great as well but be sure to share in the classroom what you learned that week. This can be a picture of your completed theory work, a clarifying question, or a comment about something you learned that week. In addition to our performance requirements students will discuss one composer every two weeks. We will post the composer and each student must provide one new fact about the composer to share with others in the classroom.
