Halloween Activity for Elementary Music: Baby Monster Story and Lesson Plan

Halloween activity for elementary music using an original Baby Monster Story and lesson plan. This halloween activity is based on the National Standards for elementary music class

Use at Halloween for a fun listening experience based on Mussorgsky's "Ox Cart" to teach Kindergartners and 1st graders about crescendo/decrescendo and mood in music.

Fun activity that encourages imaginative play as they become "baby monsters" Your students will ask you to repeat this activity for many years even though it's just for K-1st. In Word format, cut and paste into your own lesson plans.

One of my favorites. Turn out the lights, use plug-in or battery-lighted pumpkins, and have fun!!
