TEMA 4.3 - HALLOWEEN-

TEMA 4.3: HALLOWEEN

Halloween puede ser una época interesante y divertida del curso escolar. Los niños disfrutan disfrazándose y recogiendo dulces de amigos y vecinos. Sin embargo, para los niños más pequeños, Halloween pudiera ser atemorizante y confuso. Los profesores debemos de estar atentos a los posibles miedos y a la ansiedad que algunos niños pudieran tener, pues para algunos de ellos, el primer contacto de esta celebración pudiera ser en la escuela. Por lo tanto, al introducir Halloween en nuestras lecciones debe de hacerse de una manera positiva y no amenazante.

A los niños les encanta bailar y cantar, así que una manera estupenda de enseñarles algo sobre Halloween es a través de rimas, poemas y canciones y mucho mejor si las melodías que empleamos son tradicionales y conocidas.

Algunos de los objetivos que pretendemos conseguir son:

· Presentar a los niños una fiesta típica anglosajona.

· Proporcionar un contexto propicio para recordar y practicar el lenguaje y consolidar las técnicas de gestión del aula y del lenguaje usado hasta ahora.

· Brindar una experiencia cultural fuera de las normales de los alumnos.

· Reforzar el concepto del número y contar jugando a juegos numéricos en los que se pueda ver fácilmente la correspondencia entre objetos y números hablados.

· Ayudar a los niños a producir materiales artísticos atractivos para exhibirlos.

En cuanto a los criterios principales de evaluación, los niños deberían:

· Mostrar curiosidad y respeto hacia las tradiciones culturales de los demás.

· Mostrar una mayor confianza con todo el lenguaje y los procedimientos utilizados hasta ahora.

· Contar del 1 al 5 tanto hacia adelante como hacia atrás con ayuda visual.

· Cuidar y enorgullecerse del trabajo creativo propio.

Trick or treat.. (Melody: “Trick or Treat”)

Trick or treat.

Smell my feet.

Trick or treat.

Smell my feet.

Or give me something

Good to eat!

Or give me something

Good to eat!

Five funny pumpkins (Melody: “Five Funny Pumpkins”)

Five funny pumkins standing in a row

(levanta cinco dedos y señala las calabazas de la fila que has dibujado previamente en la pizarra.)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, in a row (Señala las calabazas una a una.)

He’s got eyes, a mouth and a nose (Borra los ojos, la boca y nariz de la calabaza 5.)

It’s Halloween (Mueve los brazos con alegría.)

So, off he goes. Bye-bye. (Borra la calabaza 5 y di adiós con la mano.)

Four funny pumpkins standing in a row (levanta tres dedos y señala las calabazas de la fila.)

1, 2, 3, shh in a row

He’s got eyes, a mouth and a nose…

(Esta canción la cantan mis alumnos de 5 años con la música que viene en el CD de Patch 2)

Five little pumpkins V2

Five little pumpkins

Sitting on a gate

The first one said,

"My it's getting late!"

The second one said,

"There are witches in the air!"

The third one said,

"Good folk, beware!"

The fourth one said,

"We'll run and run!"

The fifth one said,

"Let's have some fun!"

"WOOOOOOOH", went the wind,

And OUT went the light;

And the five little pumpkins

Rolled out of sight!

Ghosts and goblins (Melody: “Frere Jacques”)

Ghosts and goblins

Witches too,

All our trick or treating,

Can’t scare you!

A little Baby Ghost (Melody: “The Eensy, Weensy Spider”)

A little baby ghost went out one Halloween.

Along came a witch that the ghost had never seen!

But, mommy ghost came flying to see what made him cry…

And the witch that scared her baby went flying off so high!

Pumpkin, pumpkin(Melody: ”Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”)

Pumpkin pumpkin on the ground

How'd you get so big and round

Planted as a seed so small

Now you are a great big ball

Pumpkin pumpkin on the ground

How'd you get so big and round

In the grave yard (Melody: "Oh My Darling, Clementine ")

In the grave yard,

When the moon begins to shine,

There's a doctor, crazy doctor,

and his monster Frankenstein.

Oh, my monster,

oh, my monster,

oh, my monster Frankenstein,

you are very, very scary, don't come

near me Frankenstein.

Three black cats (Melody "Three blind mice ")

Three black cats, three black cats,

In black hats, in black hats,

They all jumped into the Halloween brew.

They teased the ghosts & the goblins too!

Have you ever seen such a Hullabaloo??

On Halloween, On Halloween!

Halloween Surprise (Melody: “Sing a Song of Sixpence”)

First you take a pumpkin

Big and fat and round

Then you cut the top off

That will make a hat

Then you hollow out the

Nose and mouth and eyes

Now you have a Jack-O-Lantern

Halloween Surprise!

Ghost Chant (Para recitar muy lentamente)

Ghost so scary.

Ghost so white

Don't scare (child's name)! (Shout the name.)

On Halloween night.

(cada vez se dice un nombre distinto en un tono de voz fantasmagórico)

One Little, Two little... (Melody: "One little, two little, Three little Indians")

One little, two little, three little pumpkins,

Four little, five little, six little pumpkins,

Seven little, eight little, Nine little pumpkins,

All for Halloween night.

Let’s get dad to carve the pumpkin,

Let’s get mom to carve the pumpkin,

Let’s all go to carve the pumpkin,

Just for Halloween night.

Don’t eat the seeds until mom cooks them,

Don’t eat the seeds until dad cooks them,

Don’t eat the seeds until we cook them,

Then they’ll taste just right.

Here comes the trick-or-treats dressed up,

Yes, It’s Halloween night!

Halloween is here (Melody: "Farmer in the Dell")

Oh, Halloween is here!

With costumes on we'll walk around

We'll knock on doors all over town,

When Halloween is here!

Hoo! (Melody: "Farmer in the Dell")

The owl goes Hoo

Hi ho on Halloween the owl goes Hoo

The ghost goes Boo

Hi ho on Halloween the ghost goes Boo

(Se pueden inventor otros versos)

Jack-o-lanterns (Melody: "Twinkle, Twinkle")

Halloween has come at last.

Jack-o-lanterns and black cats.

Funny faces round about.

People laugh and people shout.

The moon shines bright and cats meow.

Meow, meow, meow, meow.

We are Pumpkins Big and Round (Melody: "Mary Had a Little Lamb")

We are pumpkins big and round, big and round, big and round;

We are pumpkins big and round, sitting on the ground.

See our great big shiny eyes, shiny eyes, shiny eyes;

See our great big shiny eyes, looking right at you.

See our great big laughing mouth, laughing mouth, laughing mouth,

See our great big laughing mouth, smiling right at you.

Sing a Song of Halloween (Melody: "Sing a Song of Sixpence")

Sing a song of Halloween

What a Scary night,

Ghosts and bats and big black cats,

Give us all a fright

Shinning jolly Jack-O-Lanterns

Fill our hearts with fun,

But if the black cat comes along

We’ll all run!

Once I had a pumpkin (Melody: "Did You Ever See a Lassie?")

Once I had a pumpkin, a pumpkin, a pumpkin,

Once I had a pumpkin, with no face at all.

With no eyes and no nose, and no mouth and no teeth.

Once I had a pumpkin with no face at all.

So I made a jack-o-lantern, a jack-o-lantern, a jack-o-lantern,

So I made a jack-o-lantern, with a big funny face.

With big eyes and a big nose, and a big mouth with big teeth.

So I made a jack-o-lantern with a big funny face.

Black Cat (Melody: "Mary Had a Little Lamb")

We saw a black cat, black cat, black cat.

We saw a black cat on Halloween.

He was stretching his paws, his paws, his paws.

He was stretching his paws on Halloween.

Trick or Treating (Melody: "Frère Jacques")

Trick or treating, trick or treating.

BOO, BOO, BOO

Trick or treating, trick or treating.

I scare you I scare you

Here Comes Halloween (Melody: "Here comes Santa Claus")

Here comes Halloween

Black cats on the prowl

Ghosts to scare you

Goblins dare you

When you turn around

Witches flying over rooftops

Watching all in view

You'd better hide - so they won' get

To cast a spell on you

Halloween Song (Melody: "I Love to Go A Wandering")

I love to go trick or treating

on Halloween night.

And as I go I always know

the safety rules for me!

Hal-lo-ween, Hal-lo-ween, Hal-lo-ween,

Hal-lo-weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen,

Hal-lo-ween, Hal-lo-ween,

Halloween is lots of fun.

(Hal-lo-weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen should be sung like a witch)

I know I must go with an adult

and wear light colored clothes.

My parents always check my bag

before I begin to eat.

(Chorus)

The Monsters are so loud (Melody: "When Johnny Comes Marching Home")

The monsters stomp around the house,

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The monsters stomp around the house,

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The monsters stomp around the house,

Their brothers and sisters send them out

And they stomp some more outside around the house.

The monsters yell around the house,

Eeeeeeh! Eeeeeeh!

The monsters yell around the house,

Eeeeeeh! Eeeeeeh!

The monsters yell around the house,

Their brothers and sisters send them out

And they yell some more outside around the house.

The Great Pumpkin (Melody: "Did You Ever See a Lassie?")

I am the great pumpkin, great pumpkin, great pumpkin.

I am the great pumpkin. Come dance with me.

For you friends are my friends & my friends are your friends.

I am the great pumpkin. Come dance with me.

Pumpkin Man (Melody: "The Muffin Man")

Have you seen the pumpkin man,

The pumpkin man, the pumpkin man,

Have you seen the pumpkin man,

Who lives in pumpkin patch?

Have you seen the old black witch,

The old black witch, the old black witch,

Have you seen the old black witch,

Who lives in the haunted house?

Have you seen the scary ghost,

The scary ghost, the scary ghost,

Have you seen the scary ghost,

Who lives in the old ghost town?

You are my monster (Melody: "You Are My Sunshine")

You are my monster,

My only monster.

You make me happy,

When I am sad.

You never know dear,

How much I love you.

Please don't take

My monster away!

Did You Ever See A Goblin? (Melody: "Did you ever see a Lassie?")

Did you ever see a goblin, a goblin, a goblin?

Or this way or that way,

Did you ever see a goblin Stomp this way or that?
