Things We Do

We focus on beautiful singing and keeping a steady beat.

In Third Grade we also learn how to play the recorder. Here are some of the basic rules we follow when practicing at home:

1. Too, too, too - always say "Too" into the recorder.
2. We LOVE"Left-overs"!!! Always keep your Left hand OVER your Right!
3. If you can hear yourself playing, you're playing too loud! (Not really, but the point is that the recorder is meant to be played quietly!)
4. Practice, practice, practice!!! If you want to become good at the recorder, you should practice at least 10-15 minutes 3 times per week.
5. Have fun! Start a band! Put on a show!!!
