[school-discuss] Happy Halloween



Wanted to wish everyone a Happy Halloween.

Was trying to dig up some public domain resources related to
Halloween.  Found some nice recipe ideas, but still looking for some
good pd songs to sing on Halloween.  I'll share links to some of the
public domain items below.  If you have others you'd recommend or some
pd song ideas, please let me know.

Was also looking at some educational activities suggested for
Halloween such as online word search and typing games with Halloween
themes.  Was thinking it would be fairly easy to use certain Open
Source programs to do something similar.

For instance, the wordsearch game could be given Halloween related
words to search for:
http://agtoys.sourceforge.net/wordsearch/wordsearch-2.2.html
http://agtoys.sourceforge.net/

Typing games like Tuxtype could also be given a vocabulary for Halloween.

So could word scramble games like anagramarama or scramble and games
like Hangman.

Best wishes.
