Year 5

Week 2 - Recorder Time #1

Hi Year 5!

It's time to find your recorder!

Have a quick revise of the following:
* Hand position (left hand is on the top, right hand is being supportive)
* Make sure the finger holes are completely covered
* Play a tiny little "too" sound into the mouthpiece

So far we can play the following notes:
* G
* A
* B
* C (high C)
* D (high D)

If you need a reminder, they look like this:

It's time to play! Let's see what you can remember -
have a play through the songs we can already play:

Hot Cross Buns
Mary Had a Little Lamb
Miss Mary Mack
Alice the Camel

The newest song we learnt at school is called In the Sunshine.
It has all of our 5 notes.

Follow the music below and play along:

If you're feeling good with those 5 songs,
have a sneak peak of this newbie,
Stepping Stones:
(Maybe you'll notice it's by the same composer!!)
