We’ve been using Google Classroom for months with The Prometheans, but it’s proving especially handy now for sharing resources and ideas during the current measures. If any student wants to join, you’re more than welcome. Just use the code above. Hope everyone is keeping safe and well.
This is a good video tutorial on Chasing Cars that the lads have been learning in the Prometheans guitar lessons, with Mr. O’Sullivan, Ms L. O’Donovan and Mr. McWalters
If you weren’t able to join in school, maybe you’d like to try it now. It would be a good time to take it up, if you have a guitar. It’s great way to pass the time in an enjoyable way.
In the Google Classroom you’ll find the accompanying handouts that Ms O’Donovan made out. It’s basically just three chords. Great choice of song to start with.
These lesson were highly recommended by a student.
