We are working really hard in our music lessons.
It really helps if children can practice at home so please encourage them to do so.
Top tips for playing correctly and tunefully!
1.Left hand at the top- thumb covering back hole.
2.Make sure your fingers cover the holes fully.
3.Use the flat pads of your fingers- not fingertips.
4.Put the tip of the mouthpiece in your mouth.
5.Blow gently.
6.Hold your recorder at a 45 degree angle with your elbows
slightly away from your body.
7. Sit up straight.
Play along with the backing tracks. These are ones we have tried in class.
Try these for an extra challenge- you need B and A.
