Thank y'all very much for the kind words!  We are having fun learning, and they make me proud.  I find myself forgetting sometimes that they just started in August!  I will pass the comments along to them.

John, you and “your students” are amazing.  What an impact you will prove to have on these kids lives forever.  Wonderful.

Thanks Dusty!  I am obsessed with right-hand technique (a fact that the kids will attest to lol).  I couldn't be any prouder of them for coming this far in such a short time.  You are absolutely correct about the doo-wop progression.  There are THOUSANDS of songs from that era that use the exact same chord progression.

Sounds great, John.  Getting those kids to develop a strong and steady right-hand strumming technique will provide a solid foundation for playing so many different instruments later on. Kudos to you!

And I was singing along with your doo-wop progression, but I switched tunes about 4 times.  It's amazing how many hit tunes from the 50s and 60s used that same progression.
