Monthly
Challenge Question
March is Music in Our Schools Month! It is a time to celebrate school music and music education. MIOSM began as a single statewide celebration in 1973, and grew to encompass a day, then a week, and then in 1985 to become a month-long observance of school music. The purpose of MIOSM is to raise awareness of the significance of music education--and access to music--for all children. The celebration continues to grow with each passing year, reaching more and more students, teachers, musicians, and music supporters. More than 1,000 years ago, an Italian monk named Guido d'Arezzo invented something very important to music and music education. What did he create?
