As an elementary music teacher, I developed this method using a few soprano recorders, percussion instruments, a few Orff instruments and student voices for grades 3-5. Elementary music teachers can benefit from devoting less time to planning, while students participate in unison every minute of every day. Students play and sing at the same time and benefit by learning to sing and play instruments quickly and well (lessons are sequential), learn basic music theory, and also learn concert worthy arrangements.
The price listed for one student book is $12.99. A complete set consisting of one Teacher's manual,and 8 each of student books- Orff Instruments, Voice, Recorder (Soprano-Tenor) and Unpitched Percussion is $475.00, which is for three years of material.In other words, students begin the program in 3rd grade and continue it through 5th grade. The teacher's manual can also be bought separately at $34.99.
