The chord chart has six vertical lines representing the six strings of the ukulele and several horizontal lines representing the frets. Each point where a vertical and horizontal line intersect represents a specific fret on a specific string where a note can be played. For beginners, it’s important to understand the layout of the ukulele fretboard and how the ukulele strings are named.
How to use blank Ukulele Chord Charts
For beginners learning the basics of ukulele chords, it’s a good idea to start with just one chord diagram per page. Encourage your student to label or number the ukulele strings first. Next, they should understand how to number the frets and recognize the orientation of the head and body of the ukulele. Another nice exercise is to have them identify the lowest and highest notes on the ukulele diagram.
A blank ukulele chord diagram can be used to visualize a chord as well as a single or set of notes. Many teachers prefer these blank charts for teaching ukulele chords. Drawing the chord shape on paper first helps students become familiar with it, making it easier to find the chord on the instrument.
When teaching or learning a song or chord progression, it’s helpful to have several blank ukulele chord charts on a single page. For example, if you discover a nice chord progression on the ukulele, it’s good to document that progression using such a template.
