Recorder
class meets 3 times each week for 30 minutes.
Monday,
Tuesday, and Friday 11:00-11:30
TIP FOR THE WEEK : You may run your recorder through your gentle dishwasher
cycle! Be sure to place it on the top rack. To keep your recorder clean soak
it in rubbing alcohol overnight, rinse, and let dry.
Are you practicing daily for 10-15 minutes? If so, fill in your practice chart
and return to Mrs. Carlile. Practice your songs with the CD music online.
Follow the blue directions at the bottom of this page. Write down the username
(karate) and password (rubric).
As of DEC. 4, 95% of our students have passed white, yellow,orange , green
and purple. WAY TO GO, KIDS!!!!!
Now we are learning the notes C and D above middle C as we practice our
Christmas music.
OUR CHRISTMAS
CONCERT IS DECEMBER 15, 2009 AT 7:00 p.m.
All 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders need to bring a winter scarf
to music class by Dec. 8 for our "Snow Day" song. Any color or style scarf
will do! Please label your scarf....masking tape and permanent marker works
well. We'll practice our routine with the scarves in our music classes and
I'll keep them until the night of our Christmas Program on 12/15.
Students should wear their very best for our Christmas program and meet in
their classrooms at 6:45 pm.
RECORDER TESTING
What's involved in playing the test song? Students play for memory solo or in
a small group for me. I listen for clear recollection of the music, steady
tempo, good tone and articulation.
We use a method known as
KARATE RECORDER in which students practice and then test at colored levels. As
each level is passed, the student receives a bead of that color. The beads are
strung and hang from the end of the recorder. ht
ow, the webpage with your test songs is misbehaving! I hope to have it going
soon.
Students, to practice your TEST
songs (except Christmas) with the CD music online : Scroll to the top of this
