My Project

I have the pleasure of teaching Music to 125 5th graders each year. Each student will play twice a week from the end of February through the end of May.

These ukulele straps will make playing easier and facilitate better technique for all my students, but especially for those who struggle with physical challenges that make playing and holding the instrument more difficult.

At the end of the unit we will perform a concert for their parents and school staff. Students will be standing on the stage to play and a good quality strap will be necessary to accomplish that.
