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

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.
Since Adidev has sung on his own, he hasn’t nailed the second aspect above. This will come with some practice, and we recommend singing with Tootly a couple of times then singing on your own. Please also see our point-wise feedback below (based on needs work/ good/ excellent):
Confidence and Independence – excellent
Understanding of the concept or exercise – excellent
Singing/ Pitching – good, needs some work
Rhythm – good
Overall control (volume, breath etc) – excellent
Pronunciation/ recollection of lyrics – excellent
Notes: Overall Adidev is able to sing well, he just needs to get the particular tune for the particular line correct.
Youβre 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 Adidev soon.
