"Puff The Magic Dragon" by Peter, Paul And Mary Ukulele Tabs on UkuTabs - 0 views

  •  
    The purpose of this website is to find songs to use in the elementary music room with ukulele tabs. A ukulele is much easier to work with when dealing with young students and this website provides many song resources with the ukulele tab. The chords can also be transposed to make playing them easier. The current song that is linked is a favorite of my Kindergarten students.

Great Ukulele Chord Progressions - 0 views

  •  
    I use this website for two different reasons! First of all, I teach my 4th and 5th graders ukulele. Some of these chord progressions are too difficult for them, but it is fun to flip through and find some they can play. Second of all, I use this in discussion of what chord progressions are in other classes. I can then play them on ukulele or piano for the class to hear.

Hookpad Songwriting Software - Write The Song You Always Wished You Could. - 0 views

  •  
    Hookpad is an interesting piece of software. While it does involve digital notation, it focuses more on notating chords and chord progressions and does so by providing the user options to use standard and non-standard notation. I love using Hookpad when my students are doing songwriting on the ukulele. It is easy for them to play the chords on the ukulele, then input them into Hookpad by selecting the chord symbols. They can then go in an add melodies as well.

Teacher Zone | Little Kids Rock Jam Zone - 0 views

    This site has some great resources for ukulele and guitar learning in the classroom. These are free. The powerpoints are especially great because it is a step by step lesson to get students to play their instruments as quickly as possible (including little excerpts of songs in a different key). The rest of the site provides "easy" versions of popular songs for students to begin playing quickly. It was given to me in a conference session about using popular music to teach ukulele and guitar.
