When the string students complete over 90 minutes of practicing in a given week, they are awarded stickers and and a ticket to put in the ticket box. Once per month (on their Performance Day), I pull out 5 random tickets, and those students receive a prize!
This month, Sophie won the Featured Musician prize...a special feature and interview right here on her blog! Keep scrolling to learn a little bit about Sophie :)
