1. Classroom Reports
Do you teach a ukulele class? Are you a student in a ukulele class? If so, send us a short update on what your class has been up to and we'll publish it on-line! In your report, please answer the following questions:
| a) |
What has your ukulele class done recently (songs, techniques, field-trips, concerts, etc.)? |
| b) |
What songs and/or techniques are you currently working on? |
| c) |
What songs / skills / activities do you have planned for the coming weeks? |
If you have a photo of you and your class that you can send along (it will be posted on the internet), please attach it to your report. Also let us know if there's a link to your class/school we can include and don't forget to tell us where you're writing from! Top ^
