Through the course of Third Grade we learn how to play the recorder. As part of learning the recorder we practice Recorder Karate. Just like in any Dojo, each student is tested and earns a colored belt to match their skill Level. For us each song is a belt and our goal is to earn all the belts all the way to our black belt.
White Belt: Hot Cross Buns
Yellow Belt: Gently Sleep
Orange Belt: Merrily We Roll Along
Green Belt: It's Raining
Purple Belt: Old Mac Donald Had a Farm
Blue Belt: When The Saints Go Marching In
Red Belt: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Brown Belt: Amazing Grace
Black Belt: Ode to Joy
