Looks like you’ve collected a box full of sa, re, ga ma…with Mo and Mi too ! I see you’ve tried well but do also see our notes below 🙂
Here are some favourites that Mo and Mi have sent for you! 🌟🌈🔫🐒
Dear Parent,
The seven notes that your child has just learnt are the basis of all (yes, all) music. While the language used here is Indian, the seven notes are universal to any form of music and this set is also known as an octave (in western music) or saptak (in Indian music). What you may have heard as solfege (in western music) or sargam (in Indian music) is nothing more than the use of these notes (literally – sargam = sa re ga ma..)
Please also see our point-wise feedback below (based on needs work/ good/ excellent):
Confidence and Independence – needs some work
Understanding of the concept or exercise – needs some work
Singing/ Pitching – good, needs some work*
Rhythm – good
Overall control (volume, breath etc) – needs some work*
Pronunciation/ recollection of lyrics – good
Notes: When the child is unsure of singing by themselves, please use the part where he can listen to Tootly and repeat/ This is perfectly fine, especially in the initial stages.
You will notice that every video has 2 recording parts – one where the child hears phrase by phrase and sings AFTER it and one where the child can sing on their own. Use both – but don’t skip the first one, especially in the first 3-4 assignments.
Listening and singing back with the teacher/ Tootly not only helps the kids with the right pitch and lyrics (without worrying to recreate from memory) but also helps to understand how to use their voice properly and develop the habit of hearing a sound and being able to reproduce it correctly.
Look forward to hearing more from Roy. The first teacher meet is due after completion of Day 5 – please check if you have scheduled one, and if not – do schedule one from your dashboard. We’d love to meet you. Please ignore if this was completed already.
