Field Trips and Halloween

Today was my first time being in charge of a field trip! I took my elementary choir (grade 4,5, and 6) to record a track on the Children’s Wish Foundation Christmas CD. It’s pretty exciting for them – all of the schools in this area will each record a track and then the CD will be sold. The funds raised from the CD sales will go towards granting the wish of a terminally or seriously ill child. Local radio stations will also play the CD during the month of December. It was exciting for me!

On another note – has anyone ever done anything really fun and music-related for Halloween? I’ve been asked to do a station in our school’s Halloween activity day later in the month. I’m super excited about it – I’m thinking about something will scary sound effects…composing “halloween”-y music…I’m not really sure. Any suggestions?
