Bulletin Board Display

I try to change my hallway display once per month so I thought I would post so far this year.

This is always a go to board for the beginning of the year and I added pics with the description for the younger students.


I have been incorporating art into the music room this year, as the students do not get an art class.  I started with a bang in September.  September 15 is International Dot Day, based on the book, The Dot by Peter H Reynolds.  This display was later accompanied by artwork from every child in the school!!  Each grade used a different medium and they loved the experience and discussions about leaving their mark on the world.  I was able to expand on the concept, discussing how musicians who have left their mark.  (Somehow I don't have a pic of the final wall.)


I love this one and the explanations (zoom in) but next time I will add pics for the little kiddos!!

Hallway wall for everyone!!

  I am soooooo excited about the music staff in my hallway at school.  The caption is "Each of us a single note, together we create a masterpiece at DSE!"  Each note has a student's name and each color is a different class.  I am thinking I will leave it up the whole year as a teaching tool, but we will see how that goes.

Anchor charts

So... I'm not sure if anchor charts are for the students or serve as a visual reminder for me.  I love the active listening one I made and can refer to to correct or redirect students, it hangs near where I stand in the room.  The other chart reminds me what to have the kids look for when examining a new piece of music.

Centers

More Music Room Centers!!! My students love doing centers!!!! Cuptastic Each student in the group has one cup and the group must come up with a pattern to pass the cups. Pitch Reading Practice Picked up this little tool at the convention last week!   Student groups for centers are right now leveled by their pitch reading capabilities. At this center, right next to me, students can practice reading bass and treble clef. More pitch reading fun!!   Students use their recorder or the xylophone and play the pitches on the cards.   Fifth graders use these cards.  Fourth grade students use other cards. Music Madness A board game I made years ago to practice treble clef pitch reading. Musical Pairs Buy It Here Rhythm Rockets Artie Almeida Music Proficiency Pack See It Here Don't Break The Ice Music Symbols on the ice cubes.   Students draw a term, typed on paper, and tap out the matching symbol.
