Today I had my assessment in class. At first, Mr. Sadrakh wanted us to stay outside, and the students will perform one by one, with only the teachers as the audience. But in the end, we all stayed inside and watched each other perform. We were given a 10- minute last practice to perfect our song compositions and tune our instruments (for violin and guitar). After that, violin students went first. Then the piano students. I played okay, but I pressed a note wrong, but then I continued playing so my song would sound natural and so it would seem like there was nothing wrong. Then the guitar students went next, the guitar students played good. Last but not least, the flute students went to perform in front of the class. They were also good. We were given this booklet thing to write our reflection and explain how we performed. We filled it, and then we gave it to the teachers. After class, I asked Ms. Melvina what score I got and she said I got a perfect 10. I was so happy. There was no instrument class today due to the assessment of playing our melody composition.
