Halloween Logic Games are a fun activity to give to your students during Halloween (or anytime for enrichment.) The games are Halloween-themed and ask your students to solve some problems that might pop up during the Halloween season. The puzzles include a witch who forgot the recipes to her secret brew, children who mixed up their bags of candy, a spider that has spun math webs, a trick-or-treater with a secret map of his neighborhood, guessing their classmate’s costumes, and monsters who forgot their room assignments in the haunted house.

The key to building strong writers is to practice early and often—but the key to building a love of writing is to make it fun! With these back to school writing activities, students respond to narrative and persuasive prompts with the aid of writing graphic organizers while goofy prompts about stinky feet, zoo animals as pets, and time travel will get students invested in the writing process. While the prompts emphasize the first few weeks of the school year, you can pull out this resource all year long to make writing a blast instead of a drag.
