Get ready for ‘spooktacular’ learning with this Activities Pack about the history of Halloween!
This comprehensive activities pack includes an engaging reading passage that delves into the origins of Halloween and its many different traditions, such as Trick-Or-Treating, carving pumpkins, wearing spooky costumes and more! Complementing the reading passage are different forms of assessment.
I recommend using this resource with Grades 5 & 6 students and even Secondary School students, as the text could easily be used in a special History lesson about Halloween. These activities are also suitable for ESL/ELL students whose level of English is Upper Elementary (A2) or Intermediate level (B1-B2).

RESOURCES INCLUDED:
** An original non-fiction reading passage about the history of Halloween and its traditions.
** Reading-comprehension questions based on the passage. Reinforce comprehension skills with these thought-provoking questions!
** A Multiple Choice quiz based on the passage. Keep the learning experience dynamic and enjoyable while reinforcing key concepts.
** A True or False activity based on the passage.
** A word search to reinforce key vocabulary and concepts.
** A “Find the Definition” activity for students to find specific vocabulary on the reading passage and match the words to their definitions. It’s a useful and educational activity for both native speakers and ESL/ELL students.
** Worksheets with four thought-provoking writing prompts (including an acrostic poem) for students to engage in creative writing. They can be assigned as homework or students can work with them in class.
