The new concept

    Ideas for play and practice

    Recorder Magic is based on a rich collection of ideas for play and practice.

  • The collection of the print version of 1988 has been substantially expanded and varied.
  • Ideas for play and practice are ordered according to different areas of learning (articulation, notation, etc.)

     

    Children’s sheets

    The students do not receive a ready-made booklet, but rather compose their own during the first year of instruction. They receive a binder or a notebook with thick paper, where they can glue or file the children’s sheets printed out or created by the teacher, with which they can work/play with crayons during the lesson and at home.

  • The children’s sheets have been graphically redesigned and relate directly to specific ideas for play and practice.
  • New children’s sheets have been created.
