Ukulele

The ukulele has always been one of my favorite instruments. It’s small, easily portable, it has soft strings, it’s easy to learn, and it has a beautiful, sweet sound. Artsphere students learned where ukuleles come from (Hawaii), the different parts of a ukulele (body, neck, frets, strings), the names of the strings (G, C, E, A), and everyone got a chance to play it. We learned C chords and F chords, and took turns singing favorite songs, such as “Wheels on the Bus” and the ABC song. It’s so fun watching students channel their inner rock stars on this beautiful instrument!
