Year 3 were thrilled to recieve their recorders this week and begin to talk about how we will be playing them. Over the year we will be learning to play the recorder. This week we begun with getting used to holding our new instrument and practising where to place our fingers.

We had a go at making sounds and discussed how we will make different notes with our finger placements. We had a go at making soft and loud sounds by blowing gently through the mouth piece. We are very excited to start to look at the different notes next week.

We also talked about how we look after instruments and how to handle them correctly.
