This is a beginning Soprano Recorder method book, designed to be used within the Elementary Music Classroom. I created this book out of the necessity to have a functional, practical method book to teach beginning recorder students. I have implemented this method over the past 4 years in my own music classroom with tremendous success - along the way making necessary edits and changes to increase its effectiveness. I also wanted something that I had the rights to photocopy repeatedly, so as to not charge my students additional money to buy a recorder method book.
Included in this book:
* Introduction of each new note, with detailed fingering charts and directions
* Beginning on pitches E and G, using innovative numbered fingering system (E is 5, because it uses 5 fingers)
* Leveled Recorder "Pass Off" songs - familiar tunes such as "Pease Porridge" and ", sequentially ordered from easy to more advanced
* Sight-Reading Practice songs - original melodies designed for easy sight-reading
* Written assignments to assess knowledge and understanding throughout the book
* Each leveled song is also color-coordinated, allowing for a reward system to be implemented (beads, ribbons, stickers, etc) once each song is "passed-off"
* Teacher-only page with tips for using the method in your classroom and how to taylor it to your needs
** Rights to photocopy as many times as you need - buy this once and photocopy for 10, 100, or 300 students - however many you need!!!
Please feel free to contact me with questions about how I teach recorder, suggestions for improvements, or even ideas for my next revision! Thanks!
See my store as well for coordinating PowerPoint files and ActivInspire Flipcharts to use with interactive whiteboards for enhancing your teaching of this method. These files are the complete method in format for use with interactive whiteboards.

I am excited to try this lesson book with my students next year. I think it is ingenious to start with the lower notes on the recorder. I think the students will do much better with this lesson book.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Grades Taught:
Subject Area:
I have taught General Music to Kindergarten through Fifth Graders for the past 9 years. I have had a passion for both music and technology from a very young age...in my classroom I combine the two to create exciting, interactive, and meaningful music lessons. I am a certified Teach21 teacher, which is a two-year educational technology endorsement for my school district. I teach at a STEM Academy where we integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics into all aspects of our curriculum. We are pushing the envelope of STEM education in public schooling and I love it!!
