Today Mr Herry checked several of our jingles. We listened to them, and all of them were pretty good. After we heard our classmates' works, I think Mr Herry was quite disappointed that only a few of us were using the bass. So, he gave us a short briefing about the bass clef, also with where the notes are positioned. After the short lecture, he gave us worksheets. We are supposed to transcribe the song from the treble clef to the bass clef. I had some problems at first but once I got the hang of it it wasn't so hard. I still took quite a long time though. Then, in instrument class, we learned scales. This was to prepare for the upcoming practical exam. Mr John taught us a shortcut to remember many scales at once, all we had to do was to remember the pattern and use different base notes.
