Dear readers,
I know it’s been a long time since I was regularly posting on this blog, much less sharing my teacher resources.
Well, no more. I’m back with a vengeance. This week’s freebie is inspired both by my younger students love of coloring and the adult coloring book craze.
For this project, I took a simple paint-by-numbers image and replaced the numbers with musical symbols. The symbols included in the exercise are:
- quarter note
- half note
- whole note
- eighth note
- quarter rest
- half rest
- whole rest
- bass clef sign
To get the coloring page, as usual, please visit my site here. Navigate to Resources tab > For Teachers and you will see it on that page. Don’t forget to also download the color code that goes with it!

I hope both children and beginning adults find enjoyment in this. Let me know if you find it helpful to any of your students in the comments, pls!
