Learning how to play the oboe: specifically scales in 6th grade

Main topic

Reconstruction or Reconsolidation Errors

Reconsolidation

I thought the first time I learned to play scales was in my classroom in middle school, but I've been reminded that I actually started taking lessons a couple weeks before school started so I had already had some scale pracitce

Reconstruction

I learned the acronym: Every Good Boy Likes Fudge instead of: Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge which caused me to be super confused when I didn't know where the "L" note was on my oboe. I had to relearn that acronym.

Declarative or Non-declarative

Non-declarative

The act of moving my fingers over the keys which became muscle memory

Declarative

Consciously having to think about which note goes by what name on the sheet music when asked

Memory Fragments Associated

Taking scales tests in front of my class

Taking chair tests to see who would be first chair in class

Having my teacher tell me I couldn't be first chair anymore because the other oboe player felt bad that she hadn't been first chair ever

Playing my ninth grade solo over and over again in front of the class

Sensory Connections

Touch

I used my fingers to touch the different key pads on my oboe for the different notes

Sight

I was taught which notes I was pressing on the oboe correlated with each note on the sheet music in front of me

Taste

I could taste the reed in my mouth

Emotional

Every time I listen to classical music I get super excited to hear the oboe solos

I also get stressed when I hear oboe solos because I remember the pressure put on me to perform well when I had a solo

Smell

Band rooms have a particular smell, so when I play now I think about that scent. I also think about playing my oboe every time I smell something with a familiar band room scent

Hearing

I could hear which notes were wrong by how it sounded when I played. I also learned to play by ear

I could hear how the scale was supposed to sound

Cognitive Hooks

Stairs

My teacher used this to explain what scales were and how they should sound

F.A.C.E.

We used this acronym to help us remember which note went between the bars on sheet music

Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge

We used this acronym to help us remember which note correlated to which bar on sheet music
