Music...Keys to Success

(submitted by smek@usaor.net)

Here's an idea that has been a "hit" and a morale booster in my school for MIOSM. Our elementary school entrance hallway has an enormous bulletin board...what everyone sees the moment they walk into the school. Every March I claim this as a way to promote Music Month. I used this idea last year...

I made a giant keyboard (easily with white background and black paper and strips for keys). The caption read...Music...Keys to Success! I cut out colorful quarter notes and using an old yearbook, cut out photos of teachers and ancillary staff in the building...cafeteria ladies, custodians, etc. who has a musical past...ex: sang in the chorus, took piano lessons, or played an instrument. Each photo had a caption underneath of the musical talent that person experienced in their lifetime. The kids loved reading these! (and teachers loved being included!)
