Grade 4s are going to be working their way through a recorder karate challenge. They will be learning a bunch of songs to achieve levels that will be equivalent to their karate belts.

Before you attempt to record your piece, listen to it a few times and make sure you understand all the elements and when you need to start and stop playing.

Once you have practiced it a few times and you feel confident you can go ahead and record your piece!

In order to gain your tick on the challenge board in class you will need to follow the next few steps.

1.- Get your recorder and your music ready in a comfortable position (not lying on the sofa…sitting or standing straight with the paper in front of you)

3.- Press click to record and come back to the blog .

8.- Click on email and enter your teacher’s email address (devinpatrick.ryan@sek.qa for Grade 4B and fernando.ramirez@sek.qa for Grade 4A) and the rest of the details requested.
