Did you like this new song? And do you remember the patterns Tootly made to draw a caterpillar from the notes? I see you’ve sung well! Keep up the good work and here are some caterpillar friends for you! 🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛

Dear Parent,
This is a vocal exercise that every beginner student of classical music learns. Once the first stage of expanding the voice range, getting stability while singing, and being able to sing with ease in one direction (up or down) is achieved, students move on to exercises created by recurring patterns like these. Think of them like training exercises for their voices.
In this particular song, we are checking a few things: if students can manoeuvre the zig zag melody well, reach the correct highest point of the melody, and land back correctly at the starting point after completing the song.
Please also see our point-wise feedback below (based on needs work/ good/ excellent):
Confidence and Independence – good
Understanding of the concept or exercise – good
Singing/ Pitching – good
Rhythm – good
Overall control (volume, breath etc) – needs some work
Pronunciation/ recollection of lyrics – good
Notes: Hi Saanvi – we hope you liked the song; it sounded like you a were a bit tired when doing this recording and so it doesn’t have the same feel as when you sing happily. Listen back to it yourself and see how you feel!
A small tip – the listener will enjoy our singing more if they feel we ourselves are enjoying it too!
Keep practising this song, and also try to do it on your own now!
You’re almost halfway through the course, so keep the rhythm up!
The next recording is quite a few lessons away, but there is a live meet milestone in between. Please look out for the email notification once you complete Day 39. If you feel so, please schedule one before that too.
Look forward to meeting Saanvi soon.
