Mentor Collaboration

• I met with my mentor once this month.• During our meeting, I was able to greatly improve my tone.• I was also able to make my notes sound more clear in the high

range of the flute.• My mentor assigned me four pages to play and complete

between my two books.• We also talked about song possibilities for my end of the year

presentation.

What I learned

• This month, I learned how to make the high notes come out clearer on the flute.• I also learned the fingering for a high F.• I learned two scales: Bb Major and D Major.• My mentor and I continued to work on my embouchure, so I

learned that I need to move my jaw forward in the high register on the flute and move my jaw backwards in the lower register of the flute.• I was also able to learn a duet, and two pages of music out of

my method book.

Next Month

• Next month, I want to have my final song picked out and begin to rehearse it.

• I also want to continue to improve my embouchure and continue to improve my range.

• I would also like to meet with my mentor more, since we only were able to meet once last week.

• Since there are twelve major scales and I have only learned five, I would like to learn four more major scales this month so that I am able to play all twelve by the end of the year.

• In addition to these things, I also want to continue to progress through the books I am working in.
