14. Tell me about the Bar Lines…

15. What are the bar lines for?
The bar lines help us group music beat into measures. A measure has certain number of beats for example on a 4/4 measure we can group 4 beats and use a bar line to divide the measures!!!

When you see a double bar line it means that is the end of a song!

18. Who Remember the Rules…???
Sit up Straight
Put your teeth on top
Point the recorder at the Knees
Whisper “Du” to play
LEFT Hand on top
Cover the holes COMPLETELY
Blow soft warm air/Blowing steem
Play recorder in music or at home only
WAIT TO PLAY—if you don’t wait, what will happen?
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES!

19. Let’s get ready to play…
Remember to COVER THE HOLES
And if your teacher is talking you must WAIT…
If you play while your teacher is talking… what’s going to happen?
You got it, you will have to put your recorder on the bag and put it away… needless to say that you will also get a conduct mark for not following directions, rules, and disrespecting your teacher!
Remember to make good choices!!!!!!
