Hi everyone!
This week I explain the Week 4 review in the first video, and then each subsequent video shows me playing each of the songs that students are to practice this week. I am interested to know if these sorts of videos help with practicing at home, so feedback would be helpful! Please make sure to practice all of the songs on page 12 this week!
