Do you want an 7,8 or 9 for your Ukulele playing (A/A*)???

To gain a high A/A* (That is a 7, 8 or 9 in the new grades) You must learn a song of your choice on the Ukulele and come and perform it during your assessment.

A helpful site to learn songs from is ukutabs.com

UKULELES: Homework 1

Due for your second music lesson (12-16 January 2015)

  1. Tune your ukulele ready for your lesson.
  2. Practice strumming these patterns at home.

(Use your fingers on your RIGHT HAND. Do not press any notes yet.)

Extension (for a green sticker!!) Can you press the C chord with your 3rd finger while strumming? (see the above example for a guide)
