My DW:
DW Music guitar
DW 1#
This is my first DW. Well, I am a new student in SPH, so this is my first time I met the teacher of guitar lesson, Pak Imada. Well, first Pak Imada explain about the rules in his class. Second, we learn parts of guitar. Third we learn basic of the guitar, such as sting, fred, etc. Fourth we given a worksheet of a song for guitar. In the work sheet it was given a exercise. We must to do the exercise in the worksheet so we can go to the next level and we can improve our guitar skill each level we gain.
DW 2#
In the second DW, I still working on at some worksheets. I have reached A4 exercise 3 - Fingering exercise. The process I need to press my finger strong to the fred and the string using the left hand. Pak Imada said to me that I must to fix my left hand position. And Pak Imada said to me that my nails are to long so I must to cut it to play guitar easier.
DW 3#
Today, in this DW ofcourse I practice guitar. I practice A5 the tittle is "Plucking the strings for Accompaniment Playing". In this work sheet I practice plucking all strings at the same time. Finger pulgar on string 6, indice in string 3, finger medio in string 2, and finger anular in string 1. Than pluck all 4 strings togetheir (string: 6,3,2,1). I need to work on the string 1 using finger anular. I need to pluck the string stronger and harder to produce more sound. I passed Ex.1 at worksheet a5 and now I'm working at Ex.2
DW 4#
In DW 4, until now I still work on worksheet A5 “Plucking the Strings for Accompaniment. But I passed some exercise from worksheet A5. Now is quarter 2, the first week I passed 2 exercises in one day. I passed exercise 3 and 4 in one day. Exercise 3 was so easy. In exercise three there are four patterns. Each patterns the note and the way it suppose to be play is the same. That’s why I could pass exercise 3 easily. But I still must to pluck sting 1 with finger anular. So the voice could be louder and clearly to be heard. Then exercise 4 is also easy. Almost the same just like exercise 3. 2 patterns are the same and the other 2 patterns are the same also. It was easy. But I still must to pluck finger anular stronger.
This is the second week of DW 4. Now I still working on worksheet a5 and now at exercise 5. Exercise was not that easy. Because is not that easy so I must to do the practice per pattern. There are 4 patterns. In DW 4 I have passed 2 patterns. In each pattern I must to repeat it 4 times. And each the 1 round of the pattern has done, I must to put my finger pulgar to the other string, descending. So for example the first round my finger pulgar was in string 6. Than the first round of the pattern has done, I must to put my finger pulgar in string 5. I repeat it 4 times without looking on the string. The first one finger pulgar at string 6, then 5, then 4, then come back again at string 6, and done. Pak Imada said I must to keep practicing to pluck the string without looking at the string. It was not that easy, but I could pass 2 patterns. 2 pattern more, than I must to play all patterns together without repeating (I think).
DW 5#
This is my fifth DW in grade 7. In this DW I learn worksheet A6. The first week I didn’t passed exercise for A6. I only passed A5 exercises. In worksheet A6, I started to learn chords. This was my first time learning chords. Now, I only try to learn two different chords. I learn A-minor & E-Major. So I play those two chords from a song. The process was almost the same just like A5, but this is chord. But A5 and A6 have the same technique. In this worksheet I need to play the chord with a nice voice, press the fret with my finger tips, and using technique on and off. In about 2 weeks after the holiday I did this exercise 1, somehow I passed the exercise at the second week. But Pak Imada said it was not that good. He gives feedback after I passed exercise 1 in A6. He told me that I must to make the sound more nice and improve the on and off technique. I will use Pak Imada’s feedback for exercise 2 in A6.

Reflection
I think I did well on this subject. My DW is good enough, said the teacher. I also play the worksheet well. However I never practice in my house. So to got a better score I need to practice more in my house.
