Things to Keep in Mind

  • The most important thing is getting the assignment done—however long it takes. These times are minimum expectations, and on some days more (or less) time may be required.
  • Thorough preparation of the assignment is more important than how long the student spends. Emphasis should be placed on completing the assignment over the amount of time spent.
  • Practice time must be focused and purposeful. “Messing around” does not count toward practice time.
  • Parents should notify the teacher if assignments are requiring too little or too much time.
  • Up to 5 minutes per day of theory work CAN count toward practice time.
