This is my second practice video from term 2. This is me practicing the 7th major chords and its inversions from C-G major. I think this time, in this video practice i have done much better than the previous video. I think i only made several mistakes only of 2-3 mistakes. I am quite satisfy but still for next time i want to try to make no mistakes so that means i need to practice harder than this.

-Today in the theory class, we were told to gather with our singing group because we were told to dicuss, decide and come up with minimum of 2 alternative songs. Mr Herry helped us by showing some music video and we came up with 3 songs. Then we also have a little exercise on the major 7th with its inversion and dominant 7th. I got no mistakes on it and i was very happy with my result. However, for next session we are going to have a quiz so i still need to study it. While on the instrument class we played the major 7th and its inversion. however, we dont have much time so i only play on the C major and i think i am not that fluent yet so i still need to practice harder especially on the fingering part. So, for next time,i need to practice from C-G major.

-Today was the first meeting in term 2. Today we spend most of our time in theory class. First of all, Mr Herry told us our score for the developmental workbook. Then we also told to see our term 2 booklet and we discussed the assessments that we are going to have in this term. Then we were divided into group for our first assessment which is group singing. We are going to sing western song. My group consists of imez, adrian and daniel. Then Mr Herry review again about major 7th and dominant 7th and we learned also about the inversion of the major 7th. All of this is important because they will come out in our theory assessment. I think so far i got no problem with this. However, maybe i still need to practice more so that it will guarantee me to get a good mark. Then on the instrument class, we need to play major 7th and its inversion however we dont have much time to play so for next time i am just going to practice this at home.

-Today is our last meeting in this term 1. Today is the day where we reflect and give out comments. First of all, Mr Herry showed us the video recording of us individually on the practical assessment so we can see how do we do on the assessment. Then we filled in the music developmental workbook. We reflect on the overall assessments, tasks, and homeworks with the strenghts and our weaknesses as well on how to improve them. Overall, i think i did pretty well on reflecting myself. Then we also give out feedback to Mr Herry on what are his weaknesses and strenghts. However, I just still need to improve better on my performances in music class so for next term, I need to improve myself on my overall performance.

This is my practice video no 8 as well as the last video practice before the practical assessment. This is me practicing a day before the practical assessment on Friday. This time i am more focus and determined to get the maximum score i can get. I was happy that i was able to memorize and made few mistakes only but still my aim is to make no mistake on the assessment. So, i just hope for next time, i mean in the assessment i can memorize all and make no mistakes

This is my practice video no 7. This is me practicing and preparing for my practical assessment that is coming up soon. I have been trying to memorize the song and try to make no mistake but i just dont feel that i am good yet. This must means that for my next practice i need to try harder because my goal is to get a high score.

-Today we dont have any theory class nor instrument class because today we have our practical assessment. Before the assessment starts, we were allowed to have a preparation first and practice in our respective instrument classes. Then after that we start the assessment with the piano group and i got the third turn from my group. I tried to be as relax as i can be and i tried so hard to overcome my nervousness. I was very happy because i was able to memorize the entire song. At the beginning of my playing, i was very relax and it turns out good but at the end i suddenly become nervous and made mistake. I was very upset because of this because my aim is to make no mistakes at all. So, for next time, I need to practice harder than before.

-Today in the music theory class, we review again about the major 7th chords and dominant 7th. We review this because we are going to have an assessment on these topic. I am not really good in this and so i still have difficulties and i need to seek help from my friend who understand and also the teacher. Then after that we also listen to our friends' performance for their preparation for the practical assessment next session. So, for next time i need to study harder for the theory ones.
-While in the instrument class, we all play our classical song since it is our last chance to practice because next session is already the practical assessment. This time Mr herry said that i play it better but i just need to be more confident so for next session i need to practice harder for my assessment.
