Dear Parents,
We are playing Recorder Karate in music class, which means whenever we pass an assigned song we get another belt towards earning the black belt. The students are allowed to take the recorders home to practice and must bring them back for each music class.
In the bag is a rod and a piece of cloth to use for cleaning the recorders, please do not throw them away. Recorders may also be washed in the dishwasher on the top shelf.
The first belt is white and is awarded for successfully playing "Hot Cross Buns" with the left hand on top and also producing a pure tone. Students are encouraged to initiate sounds with their tongues as if they were spitting out a watermelon seed versus a whooing sound like an owl.
If you have any questions, please contact me, Ms. Tobias, at stobias@highlineacademy.org.
Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to share music with your children.
Ms. Tobias
Music Teacher
