A great time of year for Teachers to take advantage of incorporating so many academic skills into this holiday.  The students love doing ALL of them because of the nature of the mention of HALLOWEEN words and they are hooked. Alphabetize the words, find your nouns and verbs, great stories to read about the holiday and they even get to answer questions about them.  Write about a spooky story or one of your experiences in a haunted house and you can get even your most reluctant writers to write a little bit on those topics.  Then have them make that visual, a great picture, to go with the story and you have a great bulletin board to show off.  Awesome problem solving math questions that you can make up about all of the candy, they perhaps will be getting.  Let them in on the fun, also, and have them make up some problem solving questions to have their classmates see if they can answer them.  ENJOY!!!!
