To prevent this from covering the wanted poster, it can be glued to the back or the left, empty back, for example. The passport stamps can also be affixed to the KV "My traveled countries" as an overview. Tip: Print passport stamps on self-adhesive label paper and cut them into the individual passport stamps. The passport stamps are included once as a copy template for a country. This can be used, for example, when the music of a country is developed together. In the second variant, all passport stamps of the countries are sorted by continent and prepared on a copy template. This copy template is suitable, for example, for free work, learning desks, ward work or if the students are to be provided with all passport stamps beforehand and not always handed out individually. Passport: The profiles can be glued or stapled in the "Musical Passport" in DIN A5 size. Option 1: The profile pages are designed in such a way that they can be glued on top of each other on the right side of the book cover. Option 2: A file strip is glued into the passport and the new pages are stapled there. The cover is also included in color and black and white. Additional pages for the passport: Additional pages can be stapled to the passport. All pages are also available in color and black and white. Map (p. 9) Continents (included in "Musical World Tour"): The students label the continents and color them in different colors. Alternatively, the colored card template can be used. Map of Europe (included in "Musical Europe Journey"): Students mark the position of the country on the map by putting crosses or notes once they have recorded music from that country in their passport. Countries I visited: Various templates are available in color and black and white. The students write down the names of the countries for which they have filled out a musical profile or stick in the passport stamp. Tip: Label profile pages with page numbers and use this overview as a table of contents. My music profiles: On this passport page, the categories of the profile are explained with questions and sample answers. The questions can be used to fill out the profiles.
