For my Music Class, I have been tasked with learning a new instrument and documenting my progress through these blog posts as an inquiry project!

I have chosen to learn how to play the ukulele!

This is partly due to the fact that I have partial knowledge of the instrument already, as I have taught myself a little bit during the past few years. My goal is to increase my skill and competency with this instrument, to broaden my knowledge of the basic chords and reading music, eliminate hesitation between shifting notes, and ultimately be able to play at least 5 songs at a reasonable difficulty level straight from memory. I will have to be diligent about fitting practice time into my busy school and work schedule in order to achieve this goal by the end of the semester!
