Soprano Recorder Classroom Activities for Beginners.

Exerpt from the Author:

Recorder Games is filled with fun games, activities and warm-ups for the beginning recorder student. There is a strong emphasis on the exploration stage which allows students to safely explore different aspects of the recorder while providing endless opportunities for the teacher to easily assess their playing.

Most of the selections are accompanied by a set of visuals, in both PDF format and PowerPoint. One lesson could have as many as twenty different slides. The visuals are bright and stimulating which helps create interest and keeps the lesson moving. Available 1/21/2010. Book and CD with Adobe Acrobat PDF files and Microsoft PPT PowerPoint Presentation files included.

This book does not take the place of a method book. Instead, it includes short activities which create interest and makes the beginning activities in learning a new instrument in a fun and engaging experience. There are lessons for small ensemble work, question and answer activities, test templates, and rhythmic reading.

Another wonderful feature of this book is it allows you to work with various skill levels at the same time. As students learn new notes, it would be advantageous to return to a lesson and use the new note in the lesson. Circle Game and Stick the Ending are perfect examples of this.

There is no set progression, except I would encourage you to teach the first two lessons in the Beginning Activities section first. I have enjoyed using these lessons with my students, and I hope they work for you as well. Feel free to make them your own. And finally, please be respectful of copyright laws. The CD is for the purchaser to make one copy of the disc included in this resource for archival purposes only. Please do not make a copy for your friends.
