I need to buy a music book and a clear folder to complete my resources. On the other hand resources also include our homeworks and uniforms. We were recommended to use full uniform, submit HW on time, and bring resources. There are also few rules for the students: We are not alowed to have long nails, hair should be short (for boys) and hair should be short and not to touch the eyebrow (for girls), use full uniform neatly, don't be late, bring full resources to class, do not eat or drink inside the class, follow the top 10 responsibilities, etc.

Today Mr. Harry teaches us about classical and popular musics. The first day to learned about classical and popular music I only get to know the basic information about the classical and popular music, but if I keep focusing and learned so much thing i'm so sure i'm going to learn something else. Today to bad I lost few consentration, I was kind of tired and bored so i'm not focus and I don't really get what Mr. Harry was trying to say, I asked my friend to explain again and tell me what to do then I started to understand some. Mr. Harry asked us to research about classical musics and popular musics then write some information on the paper that he have already given to us.

Today Mr. Harry gave us HW about the topic that we learned this term, and we have to prepare informations for the group presentations about the classical and popular musics. Mr. Harry also asked us to choose a song to perform on the assesment week and practice piano scales as usual like C, D, E, F, G, A, B Scales. I did well but i'm still not statisfied because I made few mistakes so I think I need to improve myself by practice more so I can master all about the scales. I choose BEYER No. 15 song to perform on the assessment week.

From music subject I have learned about classical music and popular music. I have done a group presentation about classical and popular music.

After we discuss 2 topics we got assessment and quizes about notations, classical and popular musics, scales, etc. We also sing "You got a friend" & "Indonesia Pusaka" after that we go to the instrument class and practice more.

Today I have an assessment, I perform and I played BEYER no. 15# song. My weakness is I have stage fright, that is being nervous to perform in front of teacher and friends. I can only play few parts during the assessment because lack of practice and nervouse makes me hard to play it perfectly.
