Students need to have a ukulele and arrive at class with it WORKING and IN TUNE. Please see the blog post I made detailing how to purchase/acquire a ukulele and how to set it up for your first lesson: http://bit.ly/ukulelesetup

For this class, please bring two small stickers or pieces of tape, which we will be putting on the fingerboard. Small stickers such as stars or similar stickers meant for reward charts work well, as do notebook reinforcements. Clear tape can work, but should have a cut-out piece of paper under it so it is visible. Colored tape, duct tape, or other opaque tape works -- just cut it small enough that it can fit between the frets on the ukulele. 

TO SET YOUR STUDENT AND DEVICE UP FOR THIS CLASS: 
1) Please put your device in GALLERY VIEW once you enter the live Zoom session. This is found at the top of the Zoom screen. Gallery view allows students to see each other and the teacher all simultaneously, which leads to better peer interaction and student comfort, and minimizes distractions of the speaker view changing. 
2) I recommend turning off self view (click the three dots on the student's own image in gallery view, then select this option), as this helps students reduce left/right reversals and minimizes the distraction of wanting to make faces in the camera, watch themselves dance, etc. I have also had many older individuals with sensory differences or social anxiety tell me that the self view is overwhelming.
3) Please position the player so that I can see both of your hands when you are holding the ukulele. Ideally I will be able to see approximately from the forehead to the waist. Some setups that tend to work include tilting laptop or iPad downward from normal, scooting the chair away from the desk/device a bit, or sitting on the floor with a laptop on a chair in front of you and angled slightly downward.
