Take Part In A Musical Year! Bulletin Board
For this fall, I played on the words "take part" as an opportunity to display instrument and bow parts. I don't mind puns when I can use them as a learning opportunity :) And a special thanks to my mom who came up with the phrase...I knew I wanted to do something with instrument parts, but couldn't think of a good back-to-school phrase.
My mom and I used the overhead projector to trace the instruments onto poster board, and then I outlined them in permanent marker and filled them in with water colors. On the bulletin board itself, I stapled black yarn to connect each instrument part to its label. I really like how this one turned out! Now as students in all grade levels are walking to and from music class, they might pick up a few new vocabulary words and have a greater appreciation for all that orchestra students are learning about next door in orchestra.
