Do you parents remember all of those little tunes for Suzuki book 1? I find it hard to remember them also, but sometimes it helps if you have a few words to go with them.
Here's some fun lyrics for the Pre-twinkle bowing Poem:
Up like a rocket,
Down like the rain,
Back and forth like a choo choo train!
Round and round like a happy sun,
Up on your head..
pinky and thumb
Up like a rocket,
down like the rain,
Back and forth like a choo choo train!
(your teacher's version may vary slightly)
Here's another: Song of the Wind
A time to play Song of the Wind
swirling through the trees,
swirling through the trees,
leaves are falling
leaves are falling,
falling tumbling 'round and 'round.
Leaves are falling,
leaves are falling,
falling to the ground.
If you would like more, I found these at the heartstring lyrics.
Have a great time practicing, you twinklers!
