Learning will be aural and visual and you do not need to be able to read music, but you will look at how to read chord boxes, tablature and how notation works. Course includes a copy of the UKEandSing book and CD. You will need to bring a soprano ukulele.

The Tudor songs are recorded on period instruments. There are cross curricular links throughout the book making this a valuable resource for topic based learning at KS2.
