many people find it amazing how quickly someone can start playing popular songs. \u00a0Students find chords for their favorite song and often are playing by the time lunch ends. \u00a0Relaxing and rewarding, the Ukulele Club helps foster expression, collaboration, and creativity.<\/p>\n<p>Another benefit of the club is that students get to see another side to their teachers as many of them join in the fun as well. \u00a0Together, students and teachers are both looking forward to performing in Bernardo Yorba\u2019s annual talent show later in March.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-11144\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"Ukulele club at BYMS.\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-768x580.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-11145\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-2-300x222.jpg\" alt=\"Ukulele club at BYMS.\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-2-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-2-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Bernardo-Yorba-Middle-Ukulele-Club-2-2-18-2.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Under the direction of club adviser, Sherman Shen, Matadors\u00a0have an opportunity to connect with others and learn a new instrument in Bernardo Yorba Middle School\u2019s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":11143,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1178],"tags":[1679,599,1515,1686,1754],"class_list":["post-11142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-middle-school","tag-bernardo-yorba","tag-bernardo-yorba-middle-school","tag-byms","tag-matadors","tag-ukulele-club"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
