Halloween Around the World & Celebrations - Reading & History Study Includes:
- 5 articles with comprehension questions
- Celebrations around the world pumpkin map craftivity
Each article is packed with information and engaging material for the students to write about and discuss. Students also comprehension questions using text-evidence to back up their answers.
PLEASE NOTE:
- All of the articles include information about each of the holidays and celebrations. They ARE NOT all Halloween. See the list above for more information on what is included.
- This has been updated to include the banner that says "Celebrations Around the World" instead of Halloween Around the World, as many of the holidays included are NOT and should not be compared to Halloween. They are completely separate, but still fun to read about during this time of year.

⭐ These passages spiced up our small group reading around Halloween. Students enjoyed learning about the traditions from around the world while still tackling the work we needed to do in class. These passages were accessible for my 3rd graders.
⭐ I used this for my Mainstream English Language Development lesson class during the week of Halloween. The kids really enjoyed working on this in small groups.
⭐ This was amazing! I love when I can have my students complete tasks or activities that are cross-curricular. Having my students see what other celebrations happen at the same time as Halloween was perfect.
