This one hour introductory session demonstrates how the ukulele can be successfully used to deliver the music curriculum to primary pupils by the class teacher. No previous musical or instrumental experience is required. The session is hands on with all present involved in learning to strum along to some simple well known tunes.

Participants will learn two chords and a simple strumming pattern on the ukulele, allowing them to accompany some well known songs and play along to a backing track – all within one hour!

Fife Youth Music Initiative are looking for a limited number of schools to be involved in a “Ukulele in the Classroom” project in session 2012/13 which would include funding of instruments for one class and full training and support materials for the class teacher. More details of this funding opportunity will be discussed with staff attending the twilight session and expressions of interest can be registered at the end of the session or there after.
