October Music

Just in case you thought I had left T's class having no fun Fridays...here are some of the songs we did. I only got to go two times this month becuase of field trips and fall break.

I put different spooky stickers on each child in the class. We sang Oh do you have a spooky ghost (spooky spider, spooky pumpkin, etc) Then stand and turn around. Sung to Muffin Man tune. At the end sing oh do you have a spooky sticker then everyone stands and turns around.

We sang 1 little, 2 little, 3 little pumpkins...All for Halloween Night.

We sang Oh we're all dressed up in costumes trick or treat sung to Oh she'll be coming round the mountain. I think I mentioned this but I will again. Go and buy the Piggyback songs to sign. Children love sign language and it makes singing more fun too. They learned how to sign trick or treat and Happy Halloween. For signing Happy Halloween we sang Happy Halloween to ____, sung to the tune Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah. Just have children come to the front in groups of 4's and then switch. Fun.

Then we sang three different songs to Christmas tunes.
Oh witches brew (Oh christmas tree)
Deck the patch with orange and black (deck the halls)
On the first day of Halloween a dear witch gave to me.
These can all be found in Marvin's favorite Halloween Songs.

Sorry so late and absolutely no help at all to all those who had Halloween Parties to throw. A little crazy with visitors all month and colds this last week. Now on to the month of November:)
