Project Overview

This step-by-step recorder project helps pupils develop technique, steady pulse and simple note patterns through short warm-ups, rhythm playalongs and fun note jams.

  • Pulse and body-percussion warm-ups
  • Clear visual guidance for fingerings and posture
  • Rhythm playalongs using simple notation
  • Backing-track note jams to practise switching between notes

Pupils progress from their first note to short musical performances while building confidence playing together.
