Goals for this year

I am thinking about 3 basic goals for this year and they are all about equal.

• That students enjoy playing music, and it doesn’t feel like drudgery. This is a challenge sometimes when they haven’t chosen the instrument for themselves.

• That they work hard on developing good habits (so we don’t have to undo the less ideal patterns in the future)

• That they begin to see what the process is for learning the above two things (try things, notice, refine and so forth)
