Color By Notes - Fall Edition
Gratis
Greetings from Nashville!
This week, I took some personal days from school to collaborate with the talented team at MusicFirst Elementary (https://www.musicfirstelementary.com/site/) to update and improve our elementary music curriculum. While Iām away, I wanted to share a fun resource Iāve created that you might find useful in your own classroom.
Color by Note Pages for Your Youngest Musicians
Iāve put together a set of "Color by Note" pages designed specifically for your younger students. Each page features a key that tells students which note value corresponds to a specific color, and this key remains consistent throughout the packet. There are 10 coloring pages in total, each featuring a different fall theme. One page is Halloween-themed ("Purple People Eater"), so feel free to skip any pages that might not fit with your classroom needs.
Some of the pages are simple, with just two colors, while others are a bit more complex, using up to 7 colors. You can pick and choose the pages based on your available supplies and how much time you want to spend on each activity.
Musical Selections to Pair with the Activity
At the bottom of each coloring page, Iāve suggested a musical selection to pair with the activity. However, feel free to choose your own music based on your studentsā preferences or what fits best with your teaching theme. Iāve included two versions of the coloring pages: one with the music suggestions and one without, giving you some flexibility.
Here are the musical suggestions to accompany the coloring pages:
