Recorder Lessons

Fourth grade students are reminded to practice the recorder as often as possible. Students will prepare a two-line melody for homework each week. Please, remember to bring your recorder to music class. When covering a tone hole use the pads of your fingers, not the tips. Remember you are covering a curved surface and want as much skin to contact the tone hole as possible. Keep your knuckles flat (not curved up). The more practice the easier it becomes.
