This year’s Halloween profile is a game (since we’ve been on a game theme lately). You let your students “Trick or Treat” and select the next interval effort. Most of the songs on this profile are new ones (though there are a few of my classic favorites too). The songs are awesome and eerie and your students will thank you for helping them work off some of the candy they’ve stolen from their kids!Read more…
