This year fourth graders will be working with an online tool to ease recorder test anxiety in music class. Flipgrid is a video discussion platform that allows your child to submit a short video of themselves playing their assigned Recorder Karate song directly to me for a grade. Videos are to be music-related only and must be “school appropriate.” Students do not have access to each other’s videos, so students using Flipgrid do their recorder test privately at home. Students without home internet access can make their video before school in the ICC. Last year, Wilson’s 4th graders used Flipgrid for music class with great success.
