Mr. Myers Tips for a Successful Day in Middle School
1) Each evening before school prepare all your supplies and band instrument for the next day. 2) Place all school items in a special place. Use the same place each evening. 3) Eat a healthy breakfast. 4) Even if you wake up late, grab all your school items (including your instrument and band binder) and go to school. 5) Give your best effort everyday! Mr. Myers Always Have A Reed Plan
1) Purchase a box of 10 Van Doren reeds. 2) Place 3 good reeds in your instrument case. 3) Leave remaining reeds in the box at home. 4) When a reed from your instrument case wears out or breaks, replace it with a reed from home. 5) Continue this process until there are 2 reeds remaining in the box at home. 6) Tell your parents it is time to buy a new box of reeds.
