Recorder Karate Awards!

Help me give my students Recorder Karate accessories for end of the marking period concerts!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shields's classroom raised $200

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are all hardworking individuals who come to school each day excited and ready to learn.

In third grade, we learn the recorder and there is no better way to celebrate hard work and success than with a fun themed "Recorder Karate" concert at the end of each marking period.

The ribbons requested will be used to recognize each song the student learned (white belt, yellow belt, etc.). The boxes requested are for students to decorate at the end of each marking period to hold their special ribbons in. The piant pens and paint will all be used to help decorate the boxes and make each box special and unique to each student!
