i dont have a subscription, so i cant message you, but i wanted to tell you that i've been working on notating fun songs for recorder if you want to use some of them. i only have two done so far, "attack by snakes" by the aquabats (although i realized yesterday while in class that it says hell in it, not sure if thats ok) and "jammin" by bob marley. let me know if you are teaching recorder, maybe we could trade songs. i just really hate the standard ones they have in the teachers manual ... ugh.
Oh that sounds awesome kelsi! I am teaching recorder to 4th and 5th graders. I have to admit, I'm pretty boring. I use the "Recorder Karate" method and it has all the standards....hot cross buns, twinkle twinkle, old macdonald...etc. I would definitely be intersted in your songs though.
oh YES! i learned about recorder karate vaguely at a conference, it sounded kind of neat. here, send me an email at eval(unescape('%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%68%69%5f%69%6d%5f%6b%65%6c%73%69%40%63%61%72%65%32%2e%63%6f%6d%22%3e%68%69%5f%69%6d%5f%6b%65%6c%73%69%40%63%61%72%65%32%2e%63%6f%6d%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b')) and we can take this music talk off of a vegan board. yeah!
i'm gonna go read about recorder karate now!
