Playing and singing in choir class

It's hard to get students to do standard one--play an instrument, in choir class. I try to introduce piano and guitar and the ipad makes it easier.

Today all students learned "I'm Yours" which is a real easy 4 chord song. I pushed them to sing AND play. Freshman played the ipad ukulele using the six strings app and upperclassman played the chords on piano.

  1. Awesome! Today my vocal ensemble students will be using a combination of iPad Piano apps and traditional keyboard to work on basic accompaniment for warmups! And we're working toward a similar concept as above with Let it Be. Thanks for the inspiration!
