‘Performance Prep’ | Practice Bundle

Take the stress out of getting students ‘performance ready’, by making their practice time more efficient, effective and fun! This ‘Practice Kit’ performance prep bundle is specifically designed to help students get their pieces learned thoroughly, and ready to enjoy in recitals and exams. It gives you 43+ tried & true practice strategies, so kids can enjoy the challenge of taking their pieces all the way from sight reading right through deep learning and polishing…and even memorising if they want to! 

As teachers we know that there’s a world of difference between ‘playing’ and ‘performing’ music – just because students can do the first doesn’t mean they’re ready for the second! Students need an easy and fun performance preparation process that helps them to deep learn their music, pressure test this learning, and ‘road test’ their pieces before they step on stage. And this practice kit does exactly that – It gives you a myriad of practice strategies (and combinations of strategies!) that you can access quickly and easily, and teach kids as ‘fun and games’. Using this process, it’s so much easier to make sure your students are happy, comfortable and feeling in control while performing.

Help your students be ready for recitals and exams: This ‘performance prep’ practice kit gives them the skill set they need to not only practice piano and play piano, but to enjoy performing it too. With 43+ tried and true practice strategies, kids will enjoy taking a piece from sight reading through deep learning and polishing and performing.

This ‘Practice Kit’ includes:

1. The ‘Bag of Tricks’ book: with 43+ pro-practice strategies, uniquely designed to help students become more efficient and effective learners. The practice tricks taught here are a unique and engaging way take pieces from new to ‘performance ready’.
2. All THREE levels of ‘Fidgett’s Practice Spinner’: A great little hands-on tool to help engage student’s minds in their practice time. This clever spinner teaches students how to implement each practice trick, and then how to combine their practice strategies for more creative and focused practice! Suits elementary to late intermediate levels.
3. The ‘Recital Shakedown’ Game: This colourful and unique card game is an entertaining and effective way to help students ‘neutralize their nerves’… And make performance FUN again! With 50 playing cards, you can play this game in TWO ways: Play it ‘solitaire’ style in one-on-one lessons; or play it in teams in a group class. Kids of all ages and stages will have fun and learn plenty of ‘performance resilience’, before they walk on stage.

Optional Add-On: Help your students pace their efforts in the last few weeks before a performance with the ‘7 Top Tips for a Polished Performance‘ Set. With engaging graphics, and a simple list format, these posters & cards give you an easy way to structure your students final performance preparations! They are also a great resource to help parents understand how best to support and encourage their child through the performance prep period.
