Ace Kilgour
Past Notes
November 24th, 2015
Ace and I continued working on patterns, and then ended the lesson with a couple of "made up songs" -- he's coming along!

Ace is sure a cutie! I had fun tonight helping him with the patterns and concepts in playing a 'groove.' We named the various drums by colours, and worked through playing colour patterns on the parts of the kit.
We tried playing a song or two (with me on bass), but he may have been tired, so it was hard to keep his attention.

Ace started with playing the kit, and recalled all the names of the parts right away. He even played a decent 'boom chuck' beat for me (which apparently he'd been practicing with pens and dishes at home).
We then made up song songs about ducks, tractors, cows, and horses.
About 5:45 we pulled down the instrument basket and played with the various sounds from harmonica, accordion, etc.
November 3rd, 2015
This was Ace's first week. He's a very sweet and quiet boy.
We worked through the names of the kit-- tom toms, floor tom, crash, ride, hat, kick, snare together by me asking him to play them.
We spent some time with various hand percussion, and then went back to the kit for the last five minutes.
Jill is okay with working on the basics-- rhythms, making sounds, learning the role of the drums, that kind of thing.
