Today, Mr. Herry show my class a video of people playing violin, flute, piano, and guitar from youtube. He also check the homework that was given to us yesterday and he explained about making the triot and the key signature. Since our classical performance is due next two weeks, Mr. Herry ask each instrument group to present the music they will perform later on.

Today, we learn about the major scale and C and G chord. Some of my friends were asked to go in front and complete the chords and scales. Mr. Herry gave us homework about the D, A, E, and F major scale and it's due tomorrow. He also played each major scale and the chords with the keyboard and asked us what is the key he was playing. We'll be having some more time at the instrument class because the solo classical performance is coming.

Today, my class had the group slides presentation and my group did well because we give complete information and we prepared our own palmcard. For me, group 3 is the best because they can limit the time and their content or information is easy to understand and complete. I will prepare for the next assessment at home. We don't have instrument class today.

We had our singing performance today. I got turn to sing in front of the class and i think i did well but still, i need to improve my body structure when i sing in front and my nervousness. I felt very nervous when i sang in front of people but i imagine that no one was in front of me. I will do my slide presentation with my group and we don't have instrument class today.

Today, i wrote a reflection about the essay task. I wrote whether it's difficult or not and what i learned from it. Mr. Herry gave me the singing performance booklet and i need to complete the booklet. I worked on the preparations, the background information, and what i need to do. After that, each student performed their song in front of the class alphabetically. Later on, i will practice my song because I didn't get turn today.

Today is the due date of the essay but we can submit the essay on Friday so i decided to submit it on Friday instead. Mr. Herry told some of my friends who had not practice in front to practice and he had seen each students singing. I will practice my song and improve my body posture when i'm in front of the class.

Today, Mr. Herry told my class about the due date of our essay task, the materials for slides presentation, and the due date for the singing performance. I also rehearse my song in front of the class with the music played by Mr. Herry. He also gave out the handout about the great composers, essay task, and classical music periods. I will look for the karaoke mode of Mad and practice it at home so that i won't be so nervous.
