Level 1 Class:
In this class, students will earn their White, Yellow and Orange belts and be ready to advance to level 2!   
We will learn:
Note reading
Basic rhythms
Good recorder technique
Proper tonguing

Homework Offered
Students will be expected to practice their belt songs at home between classes.  The time required for this will vary from student to student.  Students earn belts as they are ready - not as a class.  Their progression through the belts is dependent on how much time and effort they put into practicing outside of class.  Eventually, students will learn each song in class, but they will earn their belts faster with some practice during the week.  10 minutes every day is usually more than sufficient for students to make quick progress!
0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will be assessed in class when they are ready to earn their next belt.  I will use a simple rubric to determine if they are ready to pass (available upon request). If students are uncomfortable playing alone during class, they are welcome to message me and we can make other arrangements for belt assessments.
