Help Suzuki Families and Teachers in Puerto Rico

Dear friends,
We are finally getting news from our colleagues in Puerto Rico. Several teachers are homeless. They will also have no income for a while, as their students' families struggle to rebuild their homes. Music lessons are way down on the list of priorities behind shelter, clean water, electricity and food.
If you would like to hold a fundraiser in order to help them, please consider donating to the Asociacion Suzuki de Puerto Rico. The director Marta Hernandez is scrupulously honest, and will make sure the monies go to the people who need it.
Thank you!

Summer Ideas to get ready for the next school year!

As July is fast approaching August, I start thinking of getting ready for the next school year, and part of me is so  NOT ready to get 'back in that saddle again"

If you are feeling in need of a little inspiration for the end of summer, maybe Parents as Partners is just the ticket! By now we've probably forgotten that we even joined, but you can still listen to all the episodes through October 15. So if you had forgotten or not had time to listen to all of them (I know I didn't listen to them all yet and I forgot about it as the summer started), then just click here to get back on!

Another idea for getting 'freshened up' and ready to start a new school year would be to make sure that you get the recordings and have a listening fest. Make a game of seeing how many places you can listen or practice review pieces. Try listening in the back yard or park. Maybe practice for the neighbors or your pets. Sometimes you sound great in the bathroom! What about a concert for out of town grandparents or cousins on Skype or a video? Have a dress up party where each song on your recording has a dance and costume!

Then you will be ready for our first Group Class which will include my fun new Spinning Wheel Game and Back to School Party! Mark your Calendar for August 11 (Friday) at 3;30 for this Amazing Back to School PLAY-IN SPINNING WHEEL!
