I require that my 3-5th bring recorders to class every time and we play
something every time. Some days it's not much, some days it's a lot. Why
bother teaching it for one year and quitting?! I really love how they are
so much more competent in 4th grade and they (some) get quite skillful in
5th. I love it.
Referring to the quote below:
