Volume 1 A+B - My Recorder and I

"My Recorder and I" is an all-in-one textbook for teachers who want to teach their students authentic music-making on a "real" instrument right from the start. It's a comprehensive concept that motivates both students and teachers through enjoyment, leading to faster success. The technical instruction is characterized by a sophisticated structure, combined with an extensive repertoire, presented in a child-friendly and brain-compatible, step-by-step pedagogy.

We listened to our customers. The most frequent criticism of Volume 1 was that first-grade children found it difficult to carry along with their other schoolbooks. Since the current edition has more than 60 new pages, the decision to reduce the weight by dividing it into four volumes – Volume 1 A, B, C, and D – was the only sensible one.

This new edition is based on the same successful pedagogy as the previous Volume 1. The change lies in the structure of the learning content. More, but smaller, learning steps have been integrated, which now correspond even more effectively to children's brain-friendly learning.

This makes it even easier for teachers to deepen their understanding of the pedagogical steps. Content can be assigned in a targeted and differentiated manner as needed, in order to optimally support the individual learning needs of the students.
In conclusion: The children find learning easier, they practice more regularly and independently. As a result, they develop particularly good reflexes and play better from sheet music.
Detailed information can be found in the product description.

The decision depends on the student's individual learning progress and educational needs. Volume 1 is designed for one school year. In practice, we have found that the duration ranges from 9 to 16 months, depending on the student. Much more detail could be added to this topic. If you are a teacher and are looking for a professional exchange with the author, Agnès Blanche Marc, the Delor Club is a suitable platform. As a member of the Delor Club, you will have the opportunity to discuss this and other aspects with the author.

After volume 1D, we continue with volume 2. The students are particularly excited at this point about: (quote from a 7-year-old aspiring musician) "the big book".
