  1. 1.What went well?
    The thing which went well was learning C,F and G. I felt confident playing them one at a time but not as much one after each other with out stopping.

    2.What could be improved?
    The thing which can be improved is playing my chords without stopping and messing up my chords.

    3.What progress have you made so far?
    So far the progress which I have made is learning the 3 chords and also sort of putting them one after the other as I do find it hard depending on the chords layout.

    4.What will you do next to develop your performing skills?
    To develop my performing skill for when I perform I will try to be confident in what I play and not be as conscious of what people think of my music.

  2. What went well?
    The class knew the chords pretty well and were confident in playing them and also everyone got an instrument they wanted.

    What could be improved?
    Next week we need to get people completely sure on the order of the chords and make certain everyone puts their instruments down when listening.

    What progress have you made?

    I am really confident on my chords but I do like the piano and I am remembering them off by heart.

    What will you do next to develop your performance skills?

    I will make sure I can play the chords fluently with no mistakes so it sounds professional and correct.

  3. What went well ? I learnt how to do c chord .
    What could be improved ? Everyone listening to eachother and putting down intruments when teacher is talking so we can
    move on quicker .
    What progress have you made ? I've learnt how to do some chords on the guitar .
    What will you do next to develop your performing skills ? Too focus and not go with friends and to learn chords of by heart so I don't have to look at the guitar when I move my fingers .

  4. 1) During the lesson we managed to mostly learn three of the four chords provided and then put them together and in order.
    2) What we could have done is complete the lesson planned had we not talked in between the instuctions as much as we had.
    3) The progress i have made is that i can now play the ukulele without a pick sufficiently because i already knew the chords before.
    4) Next lesson i will work on the scales and how i can adapt them into the song/rythm using improvisation skills and by experimenting with different notes.

  5. The thing what went well is that we all managed to at least learn one chord if not all 3 and tried playing together.
    The thing we need to improve on is listening and being silent when others are playing/speaking so we can get a lot more done in the time we're given.
    I managed to play all chords on the Ukalale well.
    Next time I will start to improvise to make it sound better and more interesting.

  8. 1.)I think what went well in the recording is that we learnt the chords to play on all of our instruments.
    2.)The timing of all of the instruments could be improved so it all goes together and works well.
    3.)I have made a lot of progress because before I had a go at playing the ukele but I found it to difficult so I went to the piano and I feel that's where I have made the most improvement and I know more chords on there than any other instruments and I love playing the piano because its soothing.
    4.)To develop my skills I need to slow down my speed and get my timing good so I don't sound out of tune or place.Usually speed is where I struggle the most because I speed up without even knowing it.

    1) we managed to learn the chords and remember them
    2) we could improve on playing more in time and being more confident
    3) so far we have learnt G and A minor off by heart
    4) next time we need to use improvisation to challenge ourselves!

  11. 1.)In the class most people learnt the chord progression of c, f and g and people who were confident learnt the melodies and scales for trumpets.
    2.)In the class people need to improve their listening skills to further insure they can hear what the teacher is teaching them about their instruments . People should also pick an instrument they are comfortable with as many struggled to play the instruments they picked .
    3.)I have accomplished learning the c,f and g chords and can play them confidently on the keyboard.
    4.)Next week I will go over the chords again and then start learning the melodies for trumpets on keyboard !

    2.) we should have listened to sir more so we could understand what we were doing better.( it could have the improved our performance)
    3.)I have learnt 3 of the 4 cords needed to play the song
    4.)I should learn the last cord and improved the speed I have when switching between them
