This bulletin board to showcase the music and musicians of Missouri.
Use clip art of our state instrument, the fiddle, our state
folk dance, square dancing, the instrument mentioned in our state song
(the banjo) and photos of various Missouri musicians.
Add an explanation to these pics and post them on construction
paper. Use large music
notes and simple versions of the Missouri Map to make the bulletin
board more attractive.
Other
ideas for information to post:
Missouri University fight songs, local composers or musicians,
a copy of the “Missouri Waltz”, songs about Missouri or with the
word “Missouri” in them (think “Shenandoah” or “St. Louis
Blues”…I’m sure you can brainstorm others)
Dress this bulletin board up by using a Missouri state map as a
background. If your
bulletin board is too large or too small to do this easily try cutting
the map into strips about 3 inches wide and using it as border
instead.
