💙💜💛 Welcome to Sing Create Play!! ♪ COURSE OUTLINE ♪ *This is a summer camp ukulele course for intermediate students. We will build on student's skills (student already needs to know the basics of ukulele playing when joining this class - see below), learning to switch between chords, mixed or complex strumming patterns and rhythms while learning a new song each day. *Please note that this is not a class for a student who has never played the ukulele before or a very beginner ukulele player. Students should have experience of playing at least the following chords: C Major, F Major, A Minor, G Major, G7 chords. This is an inclusive class and children of all abilities and disabilities are welcome. Please send us a quick message with details about your child's needs or diagnosis and I will do my best to accommodate them in my class! Each class will have the same structure (but will not be built on the previous class): 1. We will do a quick warm-up. 2. We will learn the new chords required for the song we are learning during that class. 3. We will practise the strumming technique for that specific song. 4. We will learn the song for that class, line by line, verse by verse. 5. Students can perform parts of the song should they choose to. This class will meet the needs of each type of learner, that includes kinaesthetic, visual, and auditory, through colour-coded chord sheets and visual presentations. For best results in seeing success with learning new songs is practising the chord transitions during class and outside it.
