Fun Dice Game (PDF download below)

To make the REVIEW of already learned pieces more interesting and effective, we use a dice to roll the points that the child should focus on.
These dice games can be played in conjunction with the following Practice Chains.

Below you will find 2 PDFs. The first one lists the main concentration points and the second one is for you to write in your own points.
Have fun with the dice game while playing the Practice Chains!

Happy Song for 2 violins and piano by Kerstin Wartberg can be played together with Pre-Twinkle students and students from the middle of book 1.

It can also be used as an interlude between all beginner pieces in A major (from Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star to Perpetual Motion).
This expands the repertoire of the Pre-Twinkle students and allows them to be on stage at concerts for much longer periods of time together with the more advanced students.
