During the second semester, the 5th-graders typically start a recorder unit in music class! They work hard during the first semester to learn how to read notes on the staff in preparation, and as a result they are very ready to apply their knowledge to playing an instrument!

The recorder is a perfect starter instrument to prepare students for band instruments, which they will have the opportunity to begin next year in 6th grade. Studying the recorder will give them a huge advantage as they continue their musical learning in middle school and beyond.

We will be doing a program called “Recorder Karate.” It is a highly renowned program I have used in years past with great success. Students earn colored “belts” to put on their recorders as they pass each new song, which progressively get more and more difficult. After we initially learn the basics together, students then progress at their own pace and work towards their own individual goals. We also compose, notate, and perform our own songs.

Recorder fees were included in the supply fees at the beginning of the year, so I will provide a recorder from peripole.com to each student to keep. I have found that students love to practice at home to earn their belts!
