Let’s go step by step to label each part of the recorder using the word bank.
The word bank has these terms:
- Head Joint
- Foot Joint
- Right Hand
- Mouthpiece
- Left Hand
- Body Joint
Now, let’s look at the diagram and match each box to the correct part.
1. The very top part — where you blow into — is called the
Mouthpiece. That’s the first box pointing to the tip.
2. Just below that, the top section of the recorder (the part with the mouthpiece attached) is the
Head Joint. So the second box from the top on the right side points to this whole upper section.
3. Moving down, the middle section of the recorder — where most of the finger holes are — is the
Body Joint. The big bracket on the right side covers this long middle part.
4. On the left side, there are two boxes pointing to hand positions:
- The upper one (near the top holes) is for the
Left Hand — because when you hold the recorder, your left hand goes on top.
- The lower one (near the bottom holes) is for the
Right Hand — your right hand goes below the left.
5. At the very bottom, the small end piece is the
Foot Joint. That’s the last box at the bottom.
So now we can fill in the boxes in order:
Top right box → Mouthpiece
Next box down on right → Head Joint
Big middle bracket on right → Body Joint
Bottom right box → Foot Joint
Top left box → Left Hand
Bottom left box → Right Hand
Wait — let’s double-check the diagram layout based on standard recorder labeling:
Actually, looking again at how the lines point:
- The topmost line (pointing to the very tip) →
Mouthpiece
- The next line down (pointing to the top section including the mouthpiece area) →
Head Joint
- The large bracket covering the middle section →
Body Joint
- The bottom bracket →
Foot Joint
- The left-side top box (pointing to upper finger holes) →
Left Hand
- The left-side bottom box (pointing to lower finger holes) →
Right Hand
Yes, that matches standard recorder anatomy.
Final Answer:
Top right box: Mouthpiece
Second box down on right: Head Joint
Large middle bracket on right: Body Joint
Bottom right box: Foot Joint
Top left box: Left Hand
Bottom left box: Right Hand
