Guitar Club
Once again I will be running the Guitar Club for Grade 5 and 6 students. We will be meeting on Thursdays after school from 3:00-4:00 (starting on Thursday, October 3rd) from 3:00-4:00. Arrangements for a 4:00 pick-up at the school must be made, as busses do not run at this time. A permission form must be signed and returned in order for students to participate in this program.
We will be learning basic chords and some songs on guitar. If you have access to a guitar that your child may borrow, it would be greatly appreciated, although we do have a few guitars that were donated last year that the students may use.
The guitar club has learned the following chords this year: A, D, G, C, and E. They have learned several songs as well and will continue to develop their skills in the new year.
If your child is in Guitar Club, the following are recommendations on practices they can do at home to improve their skills:
-practice tuning your own guitar (tuners can be purchased at Campbell's Music for less than $20)
-practice the chords you have learned in guitar club
-practice switching from one chord to another
-practice the songs you have learned in guitar club
