Some of us are taking our little ones trick or treating with excitement. 🎃
Some of us are reminiscing about those days when our kids were small, but now they're all grown up. 🧡
Some of us have chosen to spend this day in our own special way. 🌟
Some of us may be spending this time in solitude. 🌙
Some of us carry memories that tug at our hearts on this day. ❤️

Who else loves celebrating Halloween in the classroom? 🎃 🙋🏼♀️
⭐️ Comment WRITING CRAFT for the 🔗 to these fun crafts (that double as super cute bulletin displays 😉)
I realize this isn’t celebrated by all, and it is important we respect that. So, first, let me say…
Know your students & families before providing these types of activities❗️
I always liked to send home a questionnaire at the beginning of the year to inquire about these types of things just so I didn't do something that wouldn't be appreciated by ALL families.
It worked for me, and I hope this tip is helpful for you too! 🤍
With that being said, If you are in the clear to celebrate, you will love these writing crafts! 😃
Each craft comes with blank writing templates ranging from Pre-K to 4th grade.
You could probably use it in 5th too if you think they would enjoy it!
It is a great way to motivate the students to do some creative writing in the classroom & pairs well with most other Halloween activities!
This bundle is available now at a discount! 👏🏻
Go grab it, so you are ready for all that Halloween week will bring!
In the coming days, I will be sharing some of my favorite activities & books to use with each of the crafts.
Stay Tuned, and HAPPY THURSDAY! 💃🏼
