Thrilling Theme Songs: Scary Movie

Become a movie theme composer with these creative composition worksheets!

Create a theme song for a Scary Movie on the staff provided!

Each worksheet in this series features a fun prompt with matching designed manuscript paper in a specific category (i.e. Treble Clef Big Note). Students can enjoy imagining a specific type of film as they compose a theme song!

These worksheets are great for all ages and skill levels of students. Not only can students engage with and express their own creativity, they can also work to change their ideas into a communicable form by writing their composition in notation on manuscript paper. 

Encourage your students to try writing their composition on their own, even if they don't yet know all of the elements of music (i.e. rhythm, time signatures, stem direction, etc.). This is an opportunity for open and fun creation with little teacher intervention and little  "teaching." Encourage students to even come up with their own symbols!

Other movie prompts include include:

• Princess Movie
  
• Cowboy Movie
• Mystery Movie
• Superhero Movie
  
• Romantic Movie
• Christmas Movie
• Scary Movie

Manuscript categories include:

Imagine how amazing it would be if you sent this creative activity home with students each week? Get a binder ready, and make sure to put a date on each one for fun memories!

Why not put together a recital or concert of students' theme songs? That would be AMAZING!
