Year 4 Ukulele Group 

 

    

 Welcome to the Year 4 Ukulele page 

 

Hello Year 4! Welcome to the ukulele page....

This page is to help support playing your ukulele at home. There are some pages below with a variety of resources - songs that you have been learning in school, websites with songs to practise and play, YouTube videos to play along with, support with tuning your ukulele and YouTube videos to remind you of the basics (chords etc).

 

This is a fantastic opportunity for the children and Year 4 are the only class learning to play an instrument in school. The children will be provided with their own ukulele to use in school and at home.

 

The children MUST remember to bring it into school every Monday for their lessons with Mr. Reed from Birmingham's Music Service. Practising as much as you can at home will really help to build your child's confidence and skills when playing the ukulele, and will open up doors to more opportunities to continue to learn as you move through our school and beyond!

 

There will be termly ukulele performances for parents/carers. Please keep a look out for dates. A letter will be sent home with more details.

 

I hope it is useful and that you have lots of fun playing your ukulele at home!

Happy playing... Mrs. Hickman (Music Lead) and Mr. Reed (Ukulele teacher) ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬
