3RD GRADE RECORDER CLASSES            

Recorder classes meet once a week and each student has been given a recorder and a folder with a book and various pieces of music that will be given throughout the year. The recorders are theirs to keep but the books are to be returned at the end of the year, they are school property.

Each week the students are given an assignment from their books that they are to have prepared for the next class. Practice time should be about 5 minutes a night and they will be properly prepared. Grades are based on having their recorders, folders and book. If they are missing any of these items, it is taken off their grade.

Concert is May 28th at 9:30am
