Impressive ….

Slovonic Dance is a very challenging piece and I am impressed that you did so well with it, and that many or you tackled the harmony.
We'll play that song again next week, so keep practicing it. 
Also for next week practice:
Charlie is My Darling - the work here is playing the 6/8 rhythm, and reaching over to notes on the G string. this is a fun little jig in Am, meant to be played Joyfully!
Exercises on pg 23 (chords in the key of Dm)
and The Wayfaring Stranger - our work here is to hold the notes as long as you can. Try to make them extend into the next note. You do that by keeping your finger down on the string. For example, the first notes in the song are D D A. Keep your finger down on the D (allowing it to ring) until after you have played the A, likewise with the G and A in the next measure.  
I have posted harmony parts for Sweet Betsy From Pike and Charlie is My Darling on the Resources Page
