In lesson 4, the focus was on playing your notes with a rhythm.  The quarter, half and whole notes were introduced as well as the quarter rest.  I found that when reading music, knowing what each note represents  makes a definite difference in the sound of the song.  More practice is needed!

In this lesson, the focus was on the left hand.  I learned to names of the notes on the Bass Clef - CBAGF.  This hand was a little more difficult for me.  This lesson incorporated playing both hands at your own pace.
Minor Chords were also introduced.

This week I tried piano lesson 2.  In this lesson, the right hand was the focus.  Tim introduces the notes and the position of the fingers on the keys- notes EGBDF.  In order to identify the notes it is good to use this sentence in reading notes Every Good Boy Does Fine.    Chords were also taught.

I have watched some tutorials.  I have not created anything yet on my own.

I really want to learn more about imovie.  When watching the tutorials, there is so much to learn.  I used a few of my photos to create a movie for the family.  I am having difficulty with volume and ducking sounds I do not want to utilize.    It is not a job to do quickly- must leave time to create the way you want.
