Recorder Karate

At Burrows Elementary School fourth and fifth grade students begin to learn to play the recorder, a woodwind instrument from medieval times. The students participate in a program called Recorder Karate. Students earn belts for their recorder as they learn new songs. Students can practice and earn the belts at their own pace. The songs used are taken from Barb Philipak's book, Recorder Karate, published by Plank Road Publishing.

 

The belts and songs are as follows:

White - Hot Cross Buns (BAG)

Yellow - Gently Sleep (BAG)

Orange Merrily We Roll Along (BAG)

Green - It's Raining (E GA)

Purple - Old MacDonald Had a Farm (DE GAB)

Blue - When the Saints Go Marching In (GABC'D')

Red - Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star (DEF#GAB)

Brown- Amazing Grace (DE GAB D)

Black - Ode to Joy (D GABC'D')
