Recorders for Music

All students are expected to bring their recorder to Music class this week!

A Message from Mr. Luke. . . .

Dear Parents,

As we begin the second half of the school year, we’ll start using recorders in music class.  These instruments will help us develop finger coordination, ensemble skills, and help with music reading and performance.  Students have the option of either using a school-owned recorder or ordering one that will be theirs to keep.  School-owned recorders are sanitized after each use, but I do recommend purchasing one if you are able.  Of course, if you have a recorder from an older sibling in middle/high school, feel free to use it!

Recorders will cost $5, and I’ll be submitting the order by next week. If you would like to purchase one, please send money in an envelope or bag with your child's name and activity color group by this Friday.

Another quick note: if you want to find one on your own, a music store would have one, but please do not purchase a recorder from a dollar store, Walmart, etc.  These tend to either not work at all or break very easily.  

Thank you!
