INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Scoop up a handful of snow with both hands. Pack it together into a round shape. Add snow to the ball in your hands until it is about one foot (30.5 cm) in diameter, or until it gets too heavy. Make sure you are wearing warm, waterproof gloves, or your hands will start to hurt from handling the snow. Set the snowball on the ground and begin rolling it forward. As you roll, avoid making a cylinder by changing the direction you're rolling the ball. Keep rolling until the ball is about three feet (1 meter) wide. Stop rolling the snowball in the spot where you want the snowman to be. Make sure you start somewhere near that spot, and roll the ball so that you end up there. It often works well to roll the ball in a large spiral, but take note that this will leave an obvious pattern in the snow. Pat your snowball together every so often to keep excess snow from falling off. Scoop up some snow in both hands and pack it into a tight ball. Add more snow until the ball is too heavy to carry. Put it on the ground and roll it around as you did for the bottom section. This time, stop when the ball reaches about two feet (.6 meters) wide. Roll the snowball in a circle around the bottom section, or in a straight line away from it and back to it. This way when you finish the ball you won't have to carry it a long way to the bottom section. Depending on how big you are, have someone help you lift the large ball. Bend your knees and be sure to stand up with your legs rather than your back. Pick it up and gently set it on the bottom section. Make sure that it sits right in the center of the bottom ball. It helps if you flatten the top side of the bottom ball and flatten the bottom side of the middle ball. This helps the middle section sit firmly on the bottom section. Scoop up one last ball of snow for the head. Pack it with your hands until it is about one foot (30.5 cm) wide. You should be able to make the head without rolling it, but it's okay to roll it if you want to. When you finish, carefully place it on top of the snowman's body. Once the three sections are in place, scoop up more snow and pack it between each section. This will give the snowman a uniform look from top to bottom, rather than looking like three snowballs piled on top of each other.

SUMMARY: Pack a snowball with your hands for the bottom section. Roll the ball along the ground to make the bottom section. Form the middle section. Lift the middle section onto the bottom section. Make a one foot (30.5 cm) snowball for the head. Pack some snow between the sections.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: It is much easier to learn piano if you practice every single day, building off your prior successes and lessons. Even practicing for 20-30 minutes each day is better than only practicing once a week for a few hours. Everyday practice helps cement what you are learning. Create a practice chart with the time during the day you will practice and mark off each day you do. Place on a wall you pass often to remind you and don't forget to add a reward onto it when you have completed a certain amount of days. The more frequently you practice, the faster you will improve so don't take weekends off. Any practice everyday is better than no practice. Start with a warm-up. Just like athletic practices, your body and brain need 10 minutes to get going and reach their full potential. Some ideas for warm-ups include: Run up and down your scales 3-4 times. Play 2-3 songs that you already know well, focusing on making them perfect. Play along to a song you know, or improvise some notes while listening to another instrument. Metronomes keep a constant rhythm for you, helping you stay in time as you practice. Most musicians will unconsciously play parts they know faster and slow down for parts they don't like. This may seem fine when you are on your own, but if you try to do this with a band the entire group will fall out of sync. Start slow, around 60 BPM (beats per minute) if you are not used to using a metronome. Some music charts will list a BPM on the top, so set your metronome to this number to practice the song correctly. Instead, focus on learning one section at a time, anywhere from 10-15 seconds, and perfecting it before moving on. This allows you to confidently play the entire song well, as opposed to rushing though it and missing your mistakes. If you come across a difficult section, stop and work on it before moving on. It is difficult to lose bad habits once they are engrained. Your goal should not be to get through a piece, it should be to play it perfectly. Practicing is the time to make mistakes, not take shortcuts, so try to find your mistakes and work on ways to fix them. If you struggle with a particular scale, make that a part of your daily practice until you have it. If you can't play a fast piece completely, play it slow and add speed over time until you nail it.
Summary: Find time to practice every day. Prior to starting clarify the goal of each practice session. Practice with a metronome. Don't try to learn new songs all at once. Focus on your technique as you play.
