My Project

This school year I started a ukulele club for my third grade students.

At the end of our 15 sessions I would like for students to be able to keep their ukulele so they can continue practicing at home.

They are having such a wonderful time learning to play their ukulele and I would like for their love of music to extend beyond our time together as part of the Ukulele Club.

However, as I continue teaching the club I will need new ukulele's for the next round of students and sessions.
