Description
Looking for Halloween lessons? Or sub plans for a day? Or wanting to save your voice? This set of lesson plans has everything you need for one day or more of lessons--nothing additional to buy--and can be used for sub plans, for a reward day, or simply to save your voice (as none of the lessons require you to sing--only the kids!) Depending on how often you see your students, these could last up to a week with all of your classes!
This set is all about Halloween, and includes:
*Separate lessons for Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, 4th grade, and 5th grade (as PDF's and editable documents, so you can add/remove anything you want)
*Materials for all the lessons, including visuals, flashcards, mp3's, and more!
*Lesson tracking sheet (includes M-F, ABC rotation, ABCD rotation, ABCDE rotation, and ABCDEF rotation.)
*Directions for the set, including suggestions for optional extensions if you want to add more to the lessons or extend them to another lesson (which would require purchase of separate books, mp3's, etc)
Here are more specifics:
*Kindergarten: "Miss White" (mp3 included), Halloween movement activity, Dance with "In the Hall of the Mountain King" (link to YouTube video included), "Five Little Pumpkins" book (color and black/white included), Halloween vocal exploration activity

Each lesson includes materials, objectives, and process, and is aligned with NCCAS standards. The flashcards I've included ta and ti-ti, rest, tika-tika, half note, ti-tika, tika-ti, syncopa, tim-ka, and tam-ti, so you can print whichever you need for each grade level, depending on which rhythms they know.
The lessons require little previous knowledge (only rhythms for whichever flashcards you use, and knowledge of the terms "beat" and "rhythm.") The lessons also include everything you need--no additional books or resources to buy! The lessons do require access to YouTube, as well as pencils for students to use.
The mp3's included do not have accompaniment, as they were included only to have students learn the songs/chants.
