In accordance with the Utah Core Music Standards for fifth and sixth grades, students will, with the Ukulele, be able to: "Improvise rhythmic patterns and musical ideas"; "evaluate and refine work, applying teacher-provided criteria and collaboratively developed guidelines"; "explore and demonstrate possible interpretations of a piece by varying tempo, dynamics, and phrasing"; "sing folk, traditional, and rounds from US and other countries in tune, with good vocal tone and clear diction"; "respond to musical terms and markings for tempo and dynamics"; "demonstrate persistence and cooperation in refining performance pieces"; perform music with expression, technical accuracy, and appropriate interpretation; watch and respond to the conductor--stay together, and demonstrate performance decorum". They will gain the self-esteem and confidence with a new skill that will last a lifetime on an instrument that is so easily carried to any venue. Many students want to be 'that kid' who is accompanying the group singing songs they all know. Becoming competent increases the chances that they will be willing to try new things and develop more talents. A confident person can learn to do almost anything! The music we sing comes from all over the world (just like many of them!) Singing international folk music brings understanding of new cultures, as well as patience and tolerance for those unlike themselves.
