Are you teaching counting to 10? This Halloween counting presentation is great fun. The first half of the presentation is with the numbers in order. Then I mixed up the numbers and so the children can count them all again.
As well as teaching the students to count in order and then out of order, I have also included a set of Halloween Themed writing and counting worksheets to use in the class.
I have also added a PowerPoint presentation explaining 31 different teaching activities you could use these picture flashcard for.
You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different numbers being shown in each of the photos.
You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about Halloween Counting to 10.
The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them from the smallest to the biggest. The students can then discuss what they think the answer is if they add 2 cards together.
The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.
A fun way to teaching counting during Halloween.
I have combined three of my Halloween Resources to make them even better this year, a Halloween counting song, Number and Letter Handwriting worksheets linked to Halloween and 31 suggested ways of using these ideas in the classroom.
You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different skeletons being shown in each of the photos.
You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about the Halloween Skeleton Counting Song.
The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different groups of skeletons. The students can then discuss what they think each skeleton was saying or thinking.
The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.
