 so today we learnt how to play lion king but we all are still cleaning up some or whew mistakes we do during the song.

I am still working on moving chords from d a d to g because g is the hardest chord to change to in time of the lion king song but i almost mastered it.

I got the chords right to d a d to g i finally mastered it.

i need to focus on keeping the beat when we are strumming to the beat that the teacher plays.

so when we are starting the song to play with the chords we learnt.

so when we actually get the song correctly so when we play the song it sounds right.

Sound


  • Sirens 
  • singing 
  • songs
  • solo
  • instrumental
  • pen tapping
  • beat box
  • get natural stuff to make music 

Aim: I want to make music.

Research: How to make sound, what is a sound, what is music, how do u make music or sounds.

Method: Google what kind of sounds can we make out of forestry pieces.  Then find the instructions on how to make the instrument you were aiming to do. Then once you get the instructions 

Festival of the arts 2017.

We were using the chords we learnt on monday to play 1 song it felt good when i got the chords together in one song.

I am learning to put 3 chords to play one song.

What i found challenging was moving chords as the same time as strumming.

I have been successful at getting the chords right to play a single note.

I still need to keep in time with the teacher when she is playing the chords on her guitar. The next step for me is to practise at my uncles because he has a guitar at his house so i can strum well i am changing chords.

Festival of the arts 2017

We have been learning the chords of playing the guitar and it felt good when I got the chords done properly.

I am learning to play at least 4 to 5 songs using the chords we learnt in class.

The thing I found difficult was when my fingers hurt after pushing down the strings hard to get the sound we were looking for.

I have been successful at paying attention even though my friends are in my class.

I found out that if i pay attention i can learn something new.

Now i just need to learn how to play more songs.
