Participants collect and learn songs and singing games that support Kodály methodology for grades four and five, and beyond.

They also learn basic principles of accompanying children's singing with instruments, with an emphasis on ukulele. Participants prepare songs to sing and play on the ukulele for a group demonstration/performance at the end of the course.
