I simply chose a different way to use the activity than the intended pencil/paper format. And I think it worked fairly well.
Hey y'all, its Fermata Friday again and I have a quick post about a Fall/Thanksgiving interactive bulletin board I put up. I like how it turned out and that it will help students access rhythmic skills from a different perspective or mindset. A little bit of reading, a little bit of creating, a little bit of categorizing all combine to challenge younger students and review simple concepts for older students. I based this activity/display on a worksheet from Music Teacher Resources
I simply chose a different way to use the activity than the intended pencil/paper format. And I think it worked fairly well.
Don't forget to plan a space to hold your sticky notes and your pencils or markers so that students can respond to your challenges! I used simple 3M removable hooks to hold the bin to the wall and I have say this has lasted longer than anything I have used in the past. The hooks have remained fixed to the wallboard and the bin has not been broken, damaged or removed in any way. I think this will be a keeper!
Now use this link to go back to Elizabeth's blog Organized Chaos and see what other fun things have been posted!

Oh my goodness, I really do love your interactive bulletin board ideas! This one seems easy enough for me to tackle and it could easily be changed out for different seasons. Maybe my parent conference project?!? Thanks so much for sharing! #fermatafridays

YES! it is soo easy to put together, saves paper and time at the xerox machine, and offers students a reason to think about what you are teaching outside of the classroom! win/win/win!

What a great idea! Do you do this during a lesson? Or is it an extra activity? Do you then have the students play them all together? Love how it's sooooo interactive. Need to do this!

Sandra, I have done some rhythm work with Thanksgiving words in class but not specifically what is on the walls in the hallway. I use the bulletin board as its own outside activity to offer students an opportunity to apply what they know outside the music room setting.
