Practice the techniques and chords between classes, Practice every day even if it is for just 15 min. you have to build up stamina and with a fast course you can only get better by practicing the skills that we have learned in class.Assessment
Visually I will assess the proper way to hold the ukulele, strumming fingers, and correct hand positions for chords.Class Experience
This is NOT a beginner class, Students really need to know chords and be able to switch between them in order to get the most out of the class, to keep up, and not get frustrated. Your child does needs to know how to play the four basic chords C, A minor, F, and G in order to take this course. We will be learning more complex songs and the strumming patterns to play these songs. Most importantly we will continue learning and challenging ourselves in our playing abilities. Lesson 1 - Students will review the 4 chords and strumming patterns they have learned through Boot Camp 1, 2, and 3 - C, G, A minor, and F. We will also practice switching between chords in order to become faster. Students will review the prior content and learn how to play Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Lesson 2 - Students will review the prior content and learn how to play I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas. Lesson 3 - Students will review the prior content and learn how to play Blue Christmas. Lesson 4 - Students will review the prior content and learn how to play Jingle Bell Rock. Please have your ukulele's tuned so that helps with some time. With these type of classes, times are approximately 45 min. but class may run over based on how many students and students abilities.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the strumming pattern that will go with the song. Students will gain the song knowledge and be able to play it by the end of class.
