MYC® Sunbeams™ 1 - Try It!
What is Sunbeams™ 1?
Sunbeams 1 is an beginning level music class which includes learning piano. For a full description and to browse other MYC levels, please visit: https://www.myc.com/our-program/
What happens in a Try It! class?
A Try It! class is a first class you can try before committing to a full session. We will have an hour to share to give us time to meet, check out the Sunbeams class materials, learn some songs, learn some keyboard orientation, play a little on the pianos, and do some rhythm and movement activities. You will receive the MYC Sunshines/Sunbeams Try It! book. I will also send home a sample assignment page which would be typical for a regular class. For Sunbeams, the recommended amount of practice is 5-10 minutes for at least 5 days each week to help remember the material that was introduced each class and to promote the happy habit of practicing.
What happens after the Try It! class?
After the Try It class, I ask families to go home and consider how the class went. Did your child enjoy the activities and class format of working in a group? Did the activities feel appropriate to your child's personal level of development? Are you willing to commit to a regular class time for the length of the full session? Do you have time to guide your child in practice at least 5-10 minutes each day 5 days a week?
If your answer to these questions is "yes" and the class felt like a positive experience, please contact me within a week to let me know you are interested in joining a class. I will work together with interested families to form a class at a mutually agreeable time. At least 2-3 students are needed to form a class. Classes can start at any time of year when all interested families are available to start.
