Hey kids! I still miss you so much!! This week (June 1st-5th) all the new curriculum will have a yellow background so you can easily find it. I have added more guitar songs. Remember to do the guitar warm up first so your fingers are ready to play. There are videos and sheet music (PDF). How did you feel about our new guitar chords? I want you to continue reading the music and playing the guitar. It may be challenging at first but I think it will improve your guitar playing as you have the control of the tempo. You can also take the time to write a body percussion piece from the GENERAL page. I changed some stuff on the GENERAL page for you to enjoy. Love you guys!! Hugs from afar!
