A trading-card portrait of a great composer — collect the full series across the year.
Practice Strategy
One clear, doable practice mission for the month. No more “what do I practice?”
Mini-Lesson
A bite-sized technique or theory lesson from Elena, in print — easy to follow together.
Playful Reward Stickers
A few fun reward stickers for sticker charts, notebooks, or just because.
Composition & Improvisation Prompt
A creative mission: make up a piece, improvise, or play with a musical idea.

A fresh piece matched to your club. Fun first, “educational” as a happy side effect.
