Happy Tuesday afternoon!
I told the kids about the Recorder Dojo today. This is a place where they can play their recorder songs with an accompaniment. It is a streaming audio. There are also some other fun things there they can do.
This is how you get there...go to the Music K8 website - http://www.musick8.com/ (there's also a link on my page) and go about halfway down on the right. Click on Recorder Dojo, and it will take you to a sign in page. The username is karate, and the password is rubric. On the next page, go to "streaming audio" at the bottom of the page, and then they can click on the song they want to play with. There is a choice of slow tempo or fast tempo to practice with.
Remember, kids....count beats, practice fingering while saying the notes, then attempt to play through the song.
Slow, warm air, NOT fast cool air - and cover your holes tightly! Leaks cause squeaks!!
Good luck and remember, practice, practice, practice!!
Parents - please help your child if you can, and please help them to remember their recorders!! Their classes get extra points for everyone having their recorders on music day!!
