FLUTE RULES:
When you put your flute together or take it apart, DO NOT push the keys- only hold the parts without keys. Squishing the keys will break your flute! IF your pieces get stuck together or if you can't connect them, carefully bring it back to Music Class and Ms. Greer will help. DO NOT FORCE ANYTHING Always sit up straight with your feet flat on the floor! Use cleaning swab to clean flute after each time you play. Do not use water to clean your flute! Be careful putting your flute away. Make sure it's in the correct spot in the case. |
