Get on
board! Using ukuleles in
an elementary general
music class can open new
experiences for your
students. These fun,
accessible instruments
encourage singing while
promoting confidence and
musical independence.
Ukuleles also provide an
additional way for you to
observe student progress
and assess musical
understanding. UKULELES
ON BOARD is a collection
of sequential lessons
that illustrate how
teachers can use ukuleles
along with other common
classroom resources to
create engaging, robust
musical activities for
students. Examples are
provided for using
ukuleles together with
Orff instruments,
recorders, a variety of
percussion and even jug
band instruments. Each
unit includes digital
access to step-by-step
projectable lesson slides
so you can project all
the visual cues your
students will need. In
addition to being easy to
learn and fun, the folk
songs used throughout the
book provide students
with cultural and
historical connections.
The activities and
concepts found in
UKULELES ON BOARD are
based on the National
Standards for Music
Education. The material
has been field-tested in
grades 2-4, but is also
appropriate for fifth
grade students new to the
ukulele. This is a
valuable guide to using
ukuleles to support and
enhance the music
curriculum in your
school. Songs include:
Are You Sleeping? (Frere
Jacques!), Michael
Finnegan, Buffalo Gals,
Joe Turner Blues, Shalom
Chaverim, I Love the
Mountains, Little 'Liza
Jane, Hambone, One Bottle
of Pop, Pay Me My Money
Down, Let Us Chase the
Squirrel, Go Tell Aunt
Rhody, Old Joe Clark.
Suggested for grades
2-5.
