Treat each day like a Typical School/Work Day

 Audrey shares during her Skype Lesson her coloring contest entry. 
I especially love the Unicorn Hair Band. 

I hope everyone is doing well, and not recreating "Lord of the Flies" in your homeschooling routines.  (Little educator humor) Things are falling into place (sort of)  here at the Virtual Keys & Strings Music Studio.  

We have made several adjustments to our schedules, and I now offer some new suggestions to make things easier for you and your educators. 

As a parent also, my first suggestion is to treat each day as you did prior to our new work/school arrangements.  Pick an outfit for the day.  Have meals and snacks set as they would be planned on a weekday.    Have pencils and books ready.  Don't forget recess!

Set a timer or reminder with your phone, Alexa, Google, Siri, etc to go off 10 minutes before your music lesson.    Just as you would drive to your lesson to arrive promptly, do your best to knock virtually at your educators music space on time.  

Have pencils, stickers, tabs, anything you think will continue to typical lesson experience for your student and teacher. 

Keep the Beat Going!
