1. Meet My Ukulele
My ukulele has a body,
A neck and a head,
But it’s got no arms and legs!
A neck and a head
It has a bridge and a sound hole,
A fretboard and a nut.
Four strings and tuning pegs.
A neck and a head.

Rainy Patterns
It’s raining, it’s pouring the old man is snoring
He went to bed and bumped his head
And couldn’t get up in the morning

5. How did I Do?
Marks out of 10:
1-3
I could play the ‘Splash’ pattern using a thumb brush strum, I was mostly in time with the music.
I could play ‘Drip Drop’ but was sometimes out of time or played the wrong strings at the wrong time. I found it hard remembering which string to play when.
‘Pitter-Patter’ was difficult when we played along with the other parts. I don’t know if I was playing the right strings at the right time.
4-6
I could play the ‘Splash’ pattern using a thumb brush strum, I was in time with the music.
I could play ‘Drip Drop’ and I was mostly in time with the music.
‘Pitter-Patter’ was ok but I did occasionally get the notes muddled up, or I played too fast or too slowly. I tried to use my thumb and finger alternately.
7-8
I could play ‘Drip Drop’ and I was in time with the music.
‘Pitter-Patter’ was fine, using my finger and thumb alternately was tricky, but I managed it with practice. I was in time with the music.
9-10
I could play ‘Pitter-Patter’. I used my finger and thumb alternately and I was in time with the music.
