Rocking Recorder

This term we have been doing a lot of recorder work. We have learnt the notes A,B,C,High D,Low D,E,F#,G. We have had lots of fun learning these notes and hope to learn more.

We have played in four assemblies and played a variety of songs that appealed to our audience. I know that my brother really liked one of the songs, the one called Apache, because he kept singing - in fact he's still singing it!

Mr Taylor is a pro recorder player so he teaches us heaps of songs and notes. Here is a picture and a video of us playing.
