Recorders

In class we worked on naming recorder notes and fingerings, and played many songs from Denise Gagne's "Recorder Resource Kit." A copy of the book and recordings of the songs can be accessed for free on her website: https://musicplayonline.com/recorder/ 

​

There will be songs that are new and familiar to students, as well as interactive activities on the right side of the screen. Please enjoy exploring this resource as well as the Recorder Karate Songs on this page.

Recorder Karate!

Recorder Karate is a program meant to build students' confidence while practicing increasingly difficult songs. Below are the "belts" (in rainbow order). If a student can play the song with no mistakes they earn a belt. This can be a ribbon, string, or yarn tied to the end of their recorder. I am more than happy to receive recordings of students playing these songs at kwestaway@sd57.bc.ca. Good luck!!
