If you're looking for a 10-15 minute scale - chord regiment I might suggest using the Albert Scale exercises. You can choose several for her to use and perhaps even memorize.
As far as teaching tone goes, that's more of a long term program. If she's willing to take a few minutes each day and really concentrate the exercise doing 12ths properly is a very good one to do. Of course she has to have a good embouchure as well as proper breathing and tongue position to obtain a good tone. Having the proper reed strength and type goes a long way as well and even though she has a new mouthpiece you have to make sure it's good for her. It's always a good idea to play a duet at her lesson each week as well so she get's to hear you and work on playing in tune and with precise rhythm. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com
