3. This assignment demonstrates the following strengths...
This assignment demonstrates that I can complete this "assignment" well and that i know how to read my notes and my counts ell enough to play the song lullaby well. and that i can follow directions when I need to, like for example, when Mr. Lee told us to number our notes I did so. And it also shows that I can play the song, or lullaby correctly.
4. I could have improved my work on this assignment by...
I think I could have improved my work by playing a bit slower, at an exact pace, because when i played i honestly felt kind of rushed and tried to play faster to get it over with. I also think I could have done better by playing the grace note. I think if I gave it a try it would work, but because i was rushing it was too late.
5. How will you apply the skills you learned from this assignment in either the real world when you are an adult or in other classes while you are still a student?
I think i will need this in the future when im older, if i have classes I think i will take extra classes for art and music to have self betterment. I also think I could use this is the future because I am pretty sure that in the future we will have art and music classes. And that will help because the recorder is a basic instrument which helps just in case in eight grade we learn more advance instruments.
I also think we will use it this year because the school year did not end and we can still be using the recorder to do our assignments.
