Halloween is a great opportunity to have some fun in math while the children still do worthwhile activities!   Halloween and math make a great partnership! I doubt that there is any other theme that will motivate as much a Halloween will!         There are loads of simple games and ideas that you can use that will combine math and Halloween! These simple Tic Tac Toe games are soooooo easy to create! You just need some plastic spiders or bats and a grid drawn on paper!        These math challenges are easy to create too! We used the poster above for 2 different activities. 1. Find as many combinations of 2 or 3 numbers that add to 31 (for October 31 of course)! 2. Find sets of 3 numbers where 2 of the numbers add to the third number! Find as many as possible for each! Winner is the person with the most! Our winners received a plastic spider! :)            These are our Halloween Math Place Value Friends...

Halloween is a fantastic motivator for getting kids to write! That's why I have created a few things that you can use to get kids enthusiastic about writing this Halloween.               They can write spooky stories, recipes for witch's brews, safety hints for trick or treating, list ideas for Halloween parties or even facts and opinions about Halloween! Sometimes all they need is a sentence starter to get their imaginations firing!  Halloween Writing Quilt If you would like to get kids writing and creating an interesting display of their writing, then you will love the Halloween Writing Quilt Squares. Their are 7 quilt squares to choose from and can you use them all or use just one. The children do the writing activity on the sheet then color the small quilt squares.
