All students received a recorder flute from the school in September. Recorder flutes should always be cleaned over the weekend using soap and hot water.

Younger grades will be using percussion instruments in class and participating in rhythm call/answer games, and echo games. All students will be learning about different instrument families ( brass, percussion, strings, woodwinds) and we will also be celebrating the birthday of great composer J.S. Bach by creating a melody similar to the style of his compositions by using an app, Doodle for Bach by Google.
