    This is an online platform for lesson planning. I have always used a notebook but I am considering shifting to using plan book. Mainly because if there is an unexpected day where there is no class, the teacher can shift all of the classes over one day.

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.
