Potato Head Practice

Add a little play to your practice!  Dig through your toybox and find your old Mr. Potato Head.  Set the head and the pieces near the piano.  (I’ll even let you borrow mine if you don’t have one.)  When you are working on the important practice section in your current piece, put one piece on the Potato Head every time you play the focus spot correctly.  Keep at it until he is all assembled!!

The next day, do it again but this time put on a piece when you are correct and TAKE ONE OFF when you don’t get the goal right.  This will make you even more accountable for thinking before you play.
