Halloween Activities for the Primary Classroom
October is a great time to add a little bit of kid-friendly spooky fun in the classroom.
This Halloween unit is packed full of fun themes and the best part? They all match state standards! Spooky fun & learning, all in one!
Halloween Glyph
Glyphs are a fun way to teach your students how to create and analyze data. For this Frankie Friend Glyph, your students will build a Frankie craft based on their answers to three questions. After the students have finished their Frankie Glyph you can analyze the data and create tally mark charts, graphs, & more.
