Always come prepared to this class. Always bring a pencil or else you might forget what corrections were made in class. If you are borrowing an instrument, please make sure to keep it in good condition because those instruments are expensive. Please be on your best behavior because you might end up getting a playing test. Always listen to the teacher. Don’t talk, unless you’re going to ask a question. Set up quickly because if you’re not finished before the bell, you’ll be marked tardy. HAVE GOOD POSTURE. AND COUNT. ALWAYS COUNT. RHYTHM ALWAYS COMES FIRST WHEN PLAYING YOUR PIECE. If you’re in band, YOU BETTER USE A LOT OF AIR. USE LOTS OF AIR. If you’re in orchestra, USE A LOT OF BOW. USE LOTS OF BOW.

ALWAYS listen to what the teacher has to say. If he says "USE MORE AIR YOU BOZOS", you use more air. If he says "LESS TENSION TROMBONES" you use less tension, trombones. And ALWAYS practice. Oh and clean your instrument, it's nasty.
