This week I learned another fun song for children, Hakuna
Matata. This song is familiar for most students because they saw the original
Lion King Movie. There is a remake of
the Lion King coming out and I think the songs will be popular once again.
Here's a tutorial I found helpful!
This video was very helpful. But I felt that it was
difficult to keep up with the chords. These were new chords that I had never
learned before so it was difficult to play in time with this performer. So I
decided to download the sheet music so I look at the ukulele tabs so I could
visualize the chords. Therefore this week I discovered that I learn best by
using a combination of video demonstrations and sheet music.
I chose to learn
the song “I'se the B'y”
because this song is fast paced and I thought it would help me practice playing
at a faster tempo. I thought this would be a fun song to incorporate in the
classroom and use with rhythm band instruments. Rhythm band instruments often
include tambourines, triangles, drums and shakers. Therefore this song would be
an effective way to promote student involvement in music exercises.
This week has
helped me progress by gaining a larger repertoire of chords and songs I can play.
I am so excited to learn more! Stay tuned!
