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 and do see our notes below too to get better! 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, needs some work
Understanding of the concept or exercise – good
Singing/ Pitching – good
Rhythm – good
Overall control (volume, breath etc) – excellent
Pronunciation/ recollection of lyrics – good, needs some work
Notes: Its good that you are practising WITH Tootly help. Listen and sing so that it is easier to copy what and how Tootly sings 🙂 While Dhruva is able to sing well, he just needs to get the particular tune for the particular line correct.
Aim to start singing on your own in a few practices – for this, start listening to 2 at a time (instead of 1) phrase, then 3 at a time and so on.
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 Dhruva soon.
