My name is Elizabeth Rigney. I am new to the list. I am in my second
year teaching music. I will need all the help I can get. I'm doing
recorder Karate this year with my 4th graders. I have a student that
has already received the black belt. He drove his mom crazy practicing.
Well I want to keep him motivated while the other students are
finishing. I thought about have a bronze, silver and gold medal above
these belts. Does anyone have any suggestions for some harder songs to
use for these medals, or another suggestion to keep him motivated.
