A&C Black Highlights
Beginner Recorders Information and Resources from A&C Black
Children may have the opportunity to explore tuned and untuned instruments in the primary phase of education. Having the opportunity to develop skills in playing a specific instrument can be offered to children. This website provides online teacher notes to support teaching of tunes.
The teaching notes highlight when a new musical concept is introduced and provides information on how to approach teaching this. This is given step by step so there is sufficient detail provided for teachers to do it with success. There are also extension tips given for use with more able children within a lesson. Scores are available to download in PDF for use in lessons. Games can also be downloaded to support children in practising to play the recorder and reading musical notation.
Teachers will also find downloadable certificates that can be used to celebrate children’s achievements in learning to play the recorder. This is a great time saver and parents and carers will be able to share in the success of their child.
