- To have a knowledge of the parts and the functions of her musical instrument.
- To have an understanding of pitch and sound
- To begin to read music and know how to finger each note properly
- To be able to play a scale as a part of an enjoyable daily practice
- To become fluent with tempo and rhythm
- To learn a few simple songs by heart
- Responsibility of daily practice and cleaning the instrument
