Learning My Guitar

From Plank Road Publishing

adapted/arr. Teresa Jennings

This super easy guitar piece is a one chord tune, focusing on the E chord. The song is based on the well-known round, "Frère Jacques." Having a familiar melody allows players to also sing, though you could divide your class into players and singers. The ability to perform all parts successfully will give students a sense of accomplishment.

The arrangement and recording for this tune is a light Latin pop version which could also invite some simple percussion accompaniment. Let a few students play shakers, guiro, triangle, etc., to a rhythm they create ahead of time, or let them ad lib. A simple live performance with piano, guitars, and percussion is also quite possible with such an easy, familiar song. Even just guitars could be fun, especially if the round is performed. (from Music K-8, Vol. 20, No. 1)
