*A note from Mrs. Smith
Please encourage your child to practice their recorder. Our short classes do not allow sufficient time for practicing of new skills that are taught. As little as five minutes a day can have a very positive impact on student progress! As we continue to work on recorder, students who are practicing are coming prepared to learn new skills and students who don't are becoming frustrated when they aren't able to keep up. The only way to remember note names, notes on the staff, and fingering positions, is through repeated exposure during practice. The recorder can be a beautiful and rewarding instrument to play if sufficient time is given to practicing!
Thank you for your support!

Forgotten Objects
October 17, 2018
Hello Grade Four and Four/Five students. We would like you to choose and bring in a "forgotten object" by Friday of this week. This is an item that was once used and useful, but has since been "forgotten" or replaced by something new or different. It could be a toy, an item of clothing, a book, an old plant pot . . . there are so many choices! We will be doing some writing based on this object, so it is important that you select it by Friday. Try to be creative and bring something that is unique.
