Students can collect the following materials to use manipulatives to compose their own halloween stories.
They should practice saying the pictures & rhythms by themself and then share with a neighbor. You can have volunteers share their stories with the class and the class can sing the "Halloween is scary, halloween is neat, play the spooky rhythm on the creepy crawly beat" in between volunteers.
Materials:
2nd Grade Rhythm Bag - *located on brown cubicle & labeled - if it is not out, it is in the bottom right fabric cube, labeled.
Halloween erasers bag - *located on brown cubicle & labeled. ***PLEASE MAKE SURE STUDENTS PUT ALL OF THE SAME ERASERS BACK IN THEIR BAG
"Placemat" to organize station (located under gray cubicle)
Heart/Beat Paper - located in red drawer of rainbow tower next to gray cubicle.
**STUDENTS ARE FAMILIAR WITH THIS ACTIVITY. They should be able to self manage so long as you facilitate them getting organized and pausing every few minutes to share out via turns or with a neighbor.
They should clean up the same way they collected.
Students STAND in a circle
Any student who breaks the rules is out. Non-negotiable (aide or sub makes this call, NOT the students)
Rules:
Students must pass to the beat. They cannot hold on to a broom longer or shorter than the beat on purpose.
Students who get "out" fly around the circle holding the broomstick. NO RUNNING
All other students must stay standing inside the carpet so they don't accidentally trip someone
Don't forget: the last verse (4 broomsticks) lasts a bit longer!
They can use colorful boomwhackers as "broomsticks" (in orange buckets by first entry door)
Play as many rounds as you have time for!
