This is such a fun writing / literacy activity for Halloween! They are easy to construct and look awesome up in the classroom. We’ve discovered over the years students learn best when it is applied to real-life experiences. So, why not go with the excitement of Halloween and apply it to a literacy lesson.
The aim of this activity for students to learn a little bit about the history behind the celebration, Halloween.
This activity opens itself up to being a great speaking and listening, writing and reflection task.

4. What I may dress up as for Halloween
