​HOLIDAY FUN

This year, Thanksgiving Holidays are late in November. Most students do not return to school until the first week in December! And then there's a quick turnaround before they are out again for Winter Break! What to do?!!​​​​​

​Unit 2 (also part of the Curriculum Bundle) contains activities for everyone. You may have students who do not celebrate all of the holidays in these months. But this curriculum will provide alternatives for your programs and also lessons. that will serve and respect all cultures. ​​​

​SONGS for DECEMBER HOLIDAYS  is a great resource for all students but especially your 3rd-4th grade recorder students. This is just an example of what is included in this bundle. It's also full of suggestions, narrations, videos for programs.​​​

​

Even if you don't have enough time for a program, send your students home with great songs to play on their recorders with and for the family. It's like when they learned how to read—they love showing their new skills!
