Practice Strategy
‘Drive By’ Practice Strategy
Space out practice over the day instead of in one block of time.
Forgetting and then relearning a piece over time strengthens your memory bank.
*Select a ‘hard spot’ or four-eight measures for memory work.
*Open your music and place it on the music stand ready for your “Drive-By”.
1- “DRIVE-BY” or stop and practice before dinner (breakfast)
2- Then, “DRIVE-BY” again after dinner (breakfast)
3- Run through a couple times before school and see what is remembered after school.
