Happy Halloween!





Teachers and kids love holidays, right?

Elementary school students learn about different holidays and often create craft projects for each.  This is simply a part of the elementary experience.  

I think middle and high school students miss celebrating each season and holiday, yet the type of craft activities they did when they were younger may not be the best choice for them.  

So, how can secondary teachers incorporate appropriate activities for older students into class?   Luckily, there are now excellent academic resources available that are focused on curriculum.  Teachers can incorporate holiday or seasonally themed activities into their class without feeling guilty about doing something "just for fun".  You can find seasonal resources that specifically address academic standards.

Check out my Jack O Lantern Freebie.  Students will add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions to figure out the halloween joke. 
For older students, Partner Power: Multi-Step Inequalities is a FREE activity I've created that provides great practice.

You can find a huge variety of academically focused lessons for any subject Teachers Pay Teachers.
