For this bulletin
board I put a huge padlock in the middle.
At the top of the bulletin board I put a caption reading,
Unlocking the Keys to the Musical Alphabet with the
letters A-G listed.
Next I thought of words that
can be spelled using only the musical alphabet. These I
printed out in a very large font, cut out and put on
different colors of paper keys. These paper keys were
laminated then hung on long strands of yarn.
Next
on different colors shaped like conversation clouds, I put
staves with the notes that spell out the words that were
on the keys. These I stapled to the bulletin board. Each
cloud had a pin stuck under it.
As children walked
by my bulletin board, they could tack a key under a staff
of notes, trying to match the words to the notes.
Each day I would take down any that were wrong so that
they could try again. The children enjoyed this
activity bulletin board.
