M.I.O.S.M.
(Music In Our
Schools Month)
What is
M.I.O.S.M.?
Music In Our Schools Month
March has been officially designated by
MENC: The National Association for
Music Education for the observance of
Music In Our Schools Month
(MIOSM®), the time of year when
music education becomes the focus of
schools across the nation.
When did it
start?
MIOSM began as a single
statewide celebration in
1973, and has grown over
the decades to encompass
a day, then a week, and
then in 1985 to become a
month long celebration of
school music.
What is the
purpose of
MIOSM?
The purpose of MIOSM is to raise awareness
of the importance of music education for all
children – and to remind citizens that school
is where all children should have access to
music. MIOSM is an opportunity for music
teachers to bring their music programs to the
attention of the school and the community
and to display the benefits school music brings
to students of all ages.
What can you do
to celebrate
MIOSM?
Have students list ways in which music is a part of their everyday lives.
Have them compare lists with friends and family members.
Participate in the World's Largest Concert on March 11, 2010
Create a video for local advocacy. Record your students performing and
include an introduction from your principal, mayor, or another leader
demonstrating their support for music education. Use the video for outreach
to television and radio stations, newspapers, and legislators. (See MIOSM and
Advocacy for tips for working with the media.) Visit Music In Our Schools
Showcase for video examples.
Make a "Music Month" calendar, and dress for different musical eras.
Play appropriate music as students arrive in the morning and at lunchtime.
Add a musical touch to the morning announcements. Try having a
"mystery tune" each day, or a music trivia question, with MIOSM prizes for
the winner.
Ask the lunchroom to rename items using musical themes such as Polka
Potatoes, Harmonic Ham Sandwiches, etc. Have students suggest these fun
names.
 Sponsor a poster or poetry contest. Posters and poems should support Music In Our
Schools and revolve around the current year's theme. Have individuals from outside the
school judge the entries.
 Plan an all-school sing.
 Have a talent show emphasizing music. Tell a story, a joke, or read poetry about music, and
be sure to include traditional acts of singing, playing instruments, etc. Invite the parents,
and choose a winning act from each class to perform in a winners' assembly.
 Collaborate with the art teacher and have students design posters, banners, and buttons
featuring the MIOSM theme.
 Ask students to draw their favorite musical instrument, have them design an instrument of
the future, or bring in homemade instruments for "show and tell".
 Collaborate with your school's history or social studies departments to create crosscurricular activities based on the theme of the concert or the pieces being performed.
 Ask students to cut pictures of music and musicians out of magazines and create a musical
wall collage for your classroom(s).
 Present faculty members with MIOSM buttons and ask that they wear

them every day during March.
Invite teachers in your school to sing along with your students at a
concert. Better yet, create a teacher chorus or instrumental ensemble
to perform at an MIOSM concert.
Take a field trip during MIOSM to hear a local college group,
community chorus or orchestra, or invite a group to perform at your
school. Take advantage of MIOSM events to teach students about
concert etiquette.
Invite local Tri-M or Collegiate MENC members to participate in your
MIOSM plans through performing, teaching, games, and discussions.
Take students to a local senior center or hospital and invite everyone to
participate in the sing-along.
Present students with lapel stickers to wear during MIOSM.
Ask the local radio station if your group can record PSAs for MIOSM,
and look into placing music education messages on local marquees.
Write a 1 page report on
Why music matters to me?
You can decorate it up as much as
you want to so that I can hang them
around the school next week.
Have your parents fill
out the survey and
return them to your
classroom teachers
tomorrow!!
Invite your parents to
come and visit us in
music class (see the
flyer with the music
activity schedule)
