Operating family-produced tests mid Nov 2015
- The questions are not meant to be in difficulty-order
- The wording is spread according to bites or chunks of any quotation
- The bites or chunks of the quotations vary in extent and format [text, lyrics, hummed, sung, tapped, played on guitar, ukulele, harmonica]
- The tests will demonstrate progressive minor complexity in several cases, with increased complexity within some subsequent tests
- Arbitrary scores at the present early stage
- Records to be kept re scores per date and per learning
- Song and music sessions take place often in the early morning and occasionally during the day
- Seldom will there be whole tests run as units
- Update 24 Feb 2016 - the day has been re-ordered with the session from 2000 to 2030 However, mini- testing continues as and when during most days without records being kept.
- Test items generally are intermittent and sometimes of the order - "Lets listen to 'Coming round the .... [sung] Oh, I can't think!' with the aim of eliciting the completion of the title or phrase of the occasion.
- I repeat various quotations with or without melody from a wide range of topics from time to time in the hope that my wife will add to them. Today [27 Feb 2016] I absent-mindlessly hummed a tune and she said she didn't like it. I asked her what it was about. She said it was Ghost riders in the sky which surprised me.
