What educators are saying

Although not designed for highschool I included my highschooler in our learning about Halloween in other countries. This was fun and took us a while. There is a lot included. Easy to use.
We enjoyed learning about all the different countries. For some reason we ran out of time so I still have countries they didn’t learn about it was very engaging and exciting.

Description

Looking for a fun way to celebrate Halloween and other October celebrations with your students? Check out this WEEK-LONG study of Halloween and other Celebrations around the world! Your students will love reading and writing about Halloween and 4 other holidays in different countries. Students will learn the history of Halloween and other celebrations with 5 engaging articles and comprehension questions. After reading the 5 articles, students create a pumpkin map craftivity which will hold the most important facts they learned about the countries. This is a wonderful way to meet social studies standards, while reading and writing during the month of October!

Students will Learn About…

  • Halloween in the USA
  • Halloween in Ireland
  • Halloween in Romania
  • O-Bon in Japan
  • Dia de los Muertos in Mexico


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. 



See What Other Teachers Are Saying . . .

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.
