Ukulele with Baz

Great to have Baz back again with us this morning just before play.

Lots of new learning today.

We know the names of the notes when we pluck the strings top to bottom. G C E A and to help us remember we say Good   Children  Eat  Apples.  These are called open notes because we do not need to use our left hand fingers on any strings.

Using just these 4 notes we were set a challenge to play the first line of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. We have a few people who listened really carefully and Aurelia was really fast to have this sorted.
Here she is helping Baz to teach the class.


If you have a ukulele at home you can practise playing the tune (melody)  C C G G A A G

Remember that before you start playing it is a good idea to make sure that each string is in tune.
