You’ve loved the Complete Recorder Resource Kit! Here is a kit that will be your complete resource for music listening. Each kit comes with an audio recording of all the selections, featuring recordings from the CBC radio library. The audios include artists like Glenn Gould, The Canadian Brass, The Toronto Children’s Chorus, and Tafelmusik.

Have your students become involved in the listening by playing rhythm instruments along with the music. Rhythm instrument play alongs are given for many selections as full scores and as simple playalong flashcards. Cup games teach students about form and provide excellent practice keeping a beat. Scripts for daily intercom listening are featured - make music listening to a part of your school day. Reproducible pages include biographies and worksheets on major composers, instrument families, and a listening log. Movement activities use scarves, balloons, flashlights, paper plates, and ribbons. Listening Maps are included for many selections.

Internet references are included so you and your students can easily locate additional resources and information. This is a unique and valuable resource!
