This document outlines the development of a sign intended to encourage 4th and 5th grade orchestra students to practice more consistently. It starts with messages about practicing like throwing darts to improve playing in tune. Feedback noted issues with the clip art examples used. Later versions featured a photoshopped image that risked discrediting the message. The nearly final version features a girl embodying the courage needed to practice at home without tricks that could undermine the message. The goal is to help students improve their musicianship through effective practice habits.
