Our 3rd and 4th grade students attend a concert and perform on recorders with our local orchestra. Because we are a low income, Title I school, many of our students could not afford to purchase a recorder on their own. The Angel Recorder is high quality and will ensure our students will be successful and create a beautiful sound to blend with the orchestra. A class set of recorders will ensure our students are able to not only create beautiful music, but will also experience hands on learning and collaborating with their peers and professional orchestra. Our students truly enjoy their their music classes and love performing. Through recorders, our students play and create and perform their own music, building their social and emotional skills as well as collaborating with their peers. We are able to explore other subjects through recorders, such as history and science. Recorders are an exceptional way to encourage learning both in out and of the classroom.
