My students love to play music. We have integrated the core subjects into the music classroom and it has helped my students in their own classrooms. Music helps empower the brain. When learning a new instrument, the brain is actively trying something new, which forces it to focus, concentrate, create and problem solve. Research has even shown that people who pick up stringed instruments increase their math and reading abilities. Ukulele lessons help ease boredom during these trying times. In just a few lessons students can play many songs that can be found on the internet. Learning new things gives a sense of accomplishment. That sense of accomplishment typically leads to students setting higher goals, which not only allows them to become better, more confident players, but often, better, more confident people. In a society where our attention is increasingly fleeting, purposefully dedicating time to improve at the ukulele reinforces the fact if you stick with something and put in the work, there are priceless rewards along the way, which is useful not only for music, but life as well.
