You'll knock one out of the ballpark with this issue's "Fall Classic" lesson plan, a musical take on all things baseball. Create composer playing cards, and play a rousing game of "Music Baseball." This time of year is filled with musical celebrations, so be sure to check out the fun tune "Mad Hatter Day" and the entertaining song and choreography for "The Day After Halloween." Teach students about direction and register in "Melodic Explorations," and explore musical form with several different types of folk dances.
