Using Wall Charts for Music Notes and Rests


Listen Later

Here are some music classroom anchor charts for note and rest values. I found this to be a tremendous help in having a visual and physical reminder of names and values at the elementary level. The charts could also be used at other grade levels as well. Includes: Whole, half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth, dotted half, and a dotted quarter.

HOW DO I USE THIS RESOURCE:

1. Download the resource.

2. Enlarge as needed for the size of your classroom, print, and laminate as needed.

3. Group in one area of the classroom for easy viewing.

4. I group the posters by most common and largest to smallest value and I use body motions to reinforce the name of each note.

Check out my Blog and Video for detailed descriptions of the motions that I use for each note value. For example Whole Note = a big motion near the floor imitating a hole in the ground Half Note = Hat on the head motion for “half”.
