This 9 weeks our 4th graders will be focusing on reading and notating melodic and rhythmic patterns, identifying instruments and voice by sight, sound and family, and improvising using the question and answer format. The majority of our time will be spent doing this with our recorders. We will begin our Recorder Karate program soon and students can advance at their own pace and only the sky is the limit. As needed, I will post tutorial videos to help students at home. Once we start recorder, students should bring them to music every day. If any student does not have, or forgets a personal recorder, I will have the classroom set available and each child will be responsible for cleaning and using the classroom recorder. The classroom books and recorders are for classroom use only and cannot be take home.
If your child does not have a recorder and forgot to purchase one from school, I purchased extras. Send in $7.00 in a student envelope labeled recorder to purchase one of the extras I have.
