WOYWW 688: Nice weather

 Welcome to the weekly desk sharing with Julia and the WOYWW crowd at Stamping Ground.  Jump in, the water's fine.

I noticed that Tilly Tea Dance had added to her Etsy shop and couldn't resist another piece of beautiful art work to go with the 6 I already have.  In front of that is my latest indulgence - a Garklein - the smallest recorder you can get and played with the almost the same fingering as a descant (or soprano as known in the US).  I can get my fingers onto it so just need to practice now.  It was recorder group yeterday afternoon and I had a thoroughly fabulous time.  I am heading to another recorder group on Saturday which meets monthly and is run by my former secondary school music teacher.  We have known each other since I was 12 and she is a recorder specialist. 

As you can see the #dailychallenge2022 has passed through a school phase and is now into a service/construction vehicle phase.  I was thinking of Lynne when I did the construction pages.

Stay safe and happy WOYWW everyone.

WOYWW 686: Enjoying the Break

 I will probably be a little later than usual linking up with Julia and WOYWW today as it is the first Wednesday of my holidays.  Here is my desk yesterday after my new sopranino recorder arrived.

I have a Garklein Floetlein (the smallest recorder and an octave above descant) arriving later in the week and will probably leave my collection there.  I used to own a tenor recorder too but have no idea where it has got to.

I have updated all the resources and schemes of work for next year so far but still need to update all the curriculum leader paperwork including rewriting the progress maps in the new format.  I hope to have this finished by the end of the week so I can enjoy the rest of the holidays.

As you can see, I have finished my butterfly pages, completed four Paris based pages and have started a run of fantasy based pages (most recent is at the top).  

The recorder concert went quite well last week although I still fluffed a few notes.  Rehearsals are every other Tuesday so had fun yesterday too.  Look forward to seeing what you all have on your desks this week.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.
