Top Ten Point-Scorers for January 2011

I am amazed at how many of my students are working hard for points. It really isn't super hard . . . a few magazine points, listening at the listening center . . . good practicing! You will notice that 4 of these below have reached the 1,000 point goal and are starting over (they'll receive 2 statues if they reach 1,000 twice!)

Here are the top ten for January (there are some ties!)
#1 - Mariah - 1235 points
#2 - Sam - 1220
#3 - Andrew - 1125
#4 - Alexandra - 1125
#5 - Gavin & Joey - 860
#6 - Holland - 810
#7 - Tavis - 800
#8 - Micah - 785
#9 - Ryan - 735
#10 - Lydia, Carlie, Julia - 700

Students who are around 600 points right now are "on track" for reaching the goal of 1,000 points by April 30.

Here are some ways to earn points:
- fill out assignment page completely
- meet practice goal
- exceed practice goal - for bonus points!
- do Theory book and workbook and exercise pages if assigned
- do any Bonus pages in your assignment notebook you want to do
- do Piano Explorer magazine work - it's easy to get 40 or 50 points and you can get over 100 points with just a little more work!
- listen to music provided at the Listening Center in my studio (write down what you hear and get points).
