 At the heart of this method is a positive reward system in which students 
receive colored "karate belts" (not included) to hang from their recorders for 
each progressively more difficult tune. Stories from the hundreds of teachers 
who have tried this method rave about the success it has created with all types 
of students in a variety of settings.Included in this kit:

pages.A 
detailed description of how Recorder Karate works, complete with instructions 
for teaching the basics of playing the recorder, working in groups, and testing 
the concepts which have been taught.

classroom, including instrument care, noise control, and dealing with students 
with special challenges.
