Even though he has a ton of work to do each work, now requiring about 3 hours a day in practice, we always find a fun song to play at the end of practice. Here is one of our favorites.

Sounding great, @JimandThomas ! Good to play the fun stuff in there, too, when you're putting in so much time and effort.

Nice going up the octave—I was just talking with my teacher about this; she often does this with hymns in church, when going back through the hymn the 2nd time through.   

I have used Maurice Maurer’s video’s lots of times to practice—we’ve mentioned him a few times here on the Forum; great resource.  He’s got tons of stuff (at different tempos) on his Youtube site:

@SharonC and what we like most about Maurice is that he has great piano accompaniments at different tempi...just in case we need to use one for a competition .

Yes!  And audio is good quality, too.
