Classroom Recorder
Learning and playing recorders is always an exciting time! The most asked question I get by students is "When are we going to start recorders?" I hope this page will help.
- 3rd grade - We start learning recorders during the 2nd semester.
-
Your child has begun learning about instruments and may even want to play a band or orchestra instrument in middle school. In preparation for that, one of the new skills we are going to learn is playing the recorder!
-
We have recorders and lesson books that your child can use for each classroom. The recorders will be sanitized after each class period. I have a few recorders and books available for check out from the library for 10 days at a time. They will be sanitized after they are returned.
-
Your child may purchase a recorder from the school book store for $5.33. We have a very few used recorders that may be purchased for $2.50 and will be available from the school book store as well. Your child does not have to purchase a recorder, it just helps them to learn it a little more quickly as they can practice at home. We offer neck straps in red for $1.50.

I look forward to exploring music with your child! If you have any questions feel free to call or email me.
