"This is my first time teaching recorder and we are LOVING the curriculum. Your teacher videos are amazing, and as I have actually not really even played recorder, they have been invaluable. Thank you for your planning and creation time and for letting teachers use it at such a reasonable price!"

Modern Recorder Lab offers a step-by-step curriculum with live teaching resources that make in-class instruction easy for teachers while creating the best learning environment for elementary music students.
The curriculum offers the foundation of breathing & articulation (and so much more), which leads students to play their first note... the B Note! π
The progression continues with learning notes A & G, then combining notes B, A, & G with various uptempo and engaging songs.
Once students add the E and Low D, they can now play the G pentatonic scale and are exposed to improvisation while continuing to learn more challenging music.
Throughout the curriculum, students are encouraged to perform a piece of music focusing on a particular concept or note to earn a "Lab Coat." In the core curriculum, students can earn up to 9 different colored "Lab Coats" and then move on to the Super Lab! π§ͺ
In the Super Lab, students learn the C, high-D & F# notes!
