This is a follow up course to "Baby Shark- Ukulele Edition" and "Clementine- Ukulele Edition." Students should have taken one of these classes before signing up for this class. Students may also enroll in this class if they are comfortable playing a C major chord and a "one-finger" F major chord on the ukulele. In this course students will practice three basic chords to help them successfully play the popular song "Thunder" by Imagine Dragons. We will be adding the a minor chord and the two finger f major chord. Students will also get the opportunity to play along with other popular songs by Adele and Justin Timberlake. We will also play along to "Down in the Valley" and "Deep in the Heart of Texas." During our class, we will practice a basic strum down pattern. While learning to play, each child will have the opportunity to shine as they sing about themselves using different rhythms and notes. We will end the class by playing along with the song "Thunder." Students will be having so much fun, they won't even realize how much they are learning! No experience needed! Students will need their own ukulele with standard tuning. (GCEA) Please tune your ukulele before class. We will fine tune the ukuleles during class, but will not have time to do a major tuning.
