Ukulele Progress Update #2

I have made some progress since my last ukulele update. I am starting to be able to move from note to note faster than before. Now that I am getting better at this, the songs that I play aren’t sounding as choppy. I have not learned any new notes since I last checked in. Since I have been focussing my time on learning to play RRRYB, Hush Little Baby, and how to island strum, I haven’t been looking at any other songs. The youtube videos that I have been watching every week are based on learning to strum. Strumming is the skill that I am struggling with the most. I have yet to find a hand form that doesn’t hurt my fingers while strumming. Additionally, I find it very challenging to strum while singing. When I start to integrate singing into the strumming, I lose my rhythm. So for now, I will only strum and leave out singing until I am better at it.
