Conducting Beginning-of-the-Year Bulletin Board

 

For this year's beginning-of-the-year bulletin board, I wanted to do something with conducting patterns.  I came up with the title "Lead The Way to a Year of Learning!"  I also thought about doing "Lead the Way to a ____ Year" with lots of different adjectives in different fonts and colors, but then I thought that would look too busy.  In addition to the conducting patterns and time signatures, I included pictures of a diverse set of composers.

I went over the time signatures and conducting patterns with a permanent marker to make them less pixel-y. 

Featured conductors include:

• Leonard Bernstein
• Gustavo Dudamel
• JoAnn Falletta
• William Grant Still
• Eun Sun Kim
• Zubin Mehta
• Matthew Smith (read more about his story here)

• Google Doc of conducting patterns, time signatures, conducting pictures, and labels
