10 Tips to Being a Better Band Parent
- Ask your musician what he or she did in band today.
- Provide a place in your home and set a regular time to practice each day.
- Check your band student's homework assignments: ask him/her to name the notes for you; ask him/her to show you the fingerings; ask him/her to count or clap the rhythms for you.
- Encourage your musician to play his/her instrument for you and let him/her know how proud you are of his/her work.
- Make sure your musicians has all the necessary supplies: reeds, valve oil & slide grease, instrument cleaning supplies, mallets or drumsticks, music book and a pencil. Reeds: 3 functioning reeds in the case at all times. It is more cost effective to purchase reeds by the box.
- Make sure your musician's instrument is in good working condition. If you are unsure, ask your child's band teacher to check it.
- Look into the possibility of giving your band student private lessons on his/her instrument.
- Attend all school band events.
- Take your musician to band concerts at the middle school, high school, in the community and professional groups, such as the symphony.
- Listen to music at home.
