Halloween Alphabet Memory & Word-Building Cards – Printable Game for Early Literacy This Halloween-themed alphabet game combines memory, word-building , and flashcard activities in one printable set. I like using it around late October, when students are full of seasonal excitement but still need meaningful literacy practice. The cards bring a festive touch without being too spooky for younger children. The set includes 29 different picture cards, each available in six color variations. Altogether, that makes 174 cards to choose from, which gives you flexibility in how you organize activities. You can play a classic memory game by matching letters and pictures, or you can use the cards for simple word-building tasks. In my kindergarten group, students enjoyed laying out the alphabet in order, while in grade 1, they started experimenting with making short words on their own. Because the cards are printable, you can decide how many to use at once. For early learners, I sometimes put out only a few letters so they don’t get overwhelmed. For older or more advanced students, I add time challenges or ask them to work in pairs to build longer words. ESL and EFL students also benefit from the clear visuals, which make the letter-sound connection easier to grasp. I recommend printing the cards on heavier paper and laminating them so they last beyond one season. Once prepared, they are easy to store in small envelopes or plastic bags, and you can bring them out again whenever you need a quick center activity or sub plan. This resource works well for literacy centers, partner games, or even as a calm activity at the end of the day. Whether you are focusing on alphabet recognition, phonics, or just want a light Halloween activity, the cards give you a simple, adaptable tool that supports both independent learning and group play. Warm regards, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Get ready to rake up some gratitude with the Thankful Tree Writing Prompt! This Thanksgiving activity combines creativity and reflection to create a heartfelt masterpiece, and no actual leaves will clog your yard. Perfect for kids who are full of thanks (and maybe a little too much turkey), this activity invites them to write and draw about the people, things, and snacks they’re most grateful for. The fun starts with crafting their very own Thankful Tree. Each "leaf" becomes a blank canvas for kids to jot down what warms their hearts, like family, friends, and possibly an unhealthy obsession with mac and cheese. Once the writing’s done, it’s time to branch out with some drawing! Students can add colorful flair to their trees, turning their gratitude into an autumnal work of art. This activity is ideal for classrooms or as a family bonding moment that doesn’t involve fighting over the remote. By the end, kids will have a beautiful Thankful Tree they’ll be proud to display, and you’ll have a little peace and quiet, at least until dessert. Fun, festive, and packed with good vibes, this writing prompt is a must-have for spreading gratitude (and maybe sneaking in a little spelling practice). Let’s get thankful! Enjoy!

Build a Skeleton Halloween Craft Project

This is a Build a Skeleton Halloween Craft . You can customize the ribs of the skeleton with your student's name or use the general "normal rib" template included. This file comes as a PDF with a link to a Google Drive link which you can use to type your students name on the ribs of the skeleton as shown in pictures. You can also use the general "normal ribs" template provided. It can be split into 2-3 lessons in your science class or for Halloween Craft /Project. Step-by-step directions are provided. Everything you need to print to create this life-sized skeleton is included! Notes for Teachers Students will need some direction to get started, to get started teacher will need to explain how to glue the parts together and model a couple of pieces so students can independently complete the skeleton. The Skeleton Diagram on slide 3 can be displayed for the whole class or printed out for students to see as a reference. I printed out 3-5 copies for students to use if they needed a copy. Not all students needed it. Note there are two skeleton heads; the main difference is the mouth. Either one can be used for the skeleton, both options can be printed for students to choose from one one style can be printed for the whole class. This activity requires a lot of cutting, it is recommended to split it up in 2-3 sessions. I printed and stapled all of the pages and gave it to students as a packet. Students tore off one page from the packet at a time and cut out the bones, this helped keep all pages together, avoid students from loosing or mixing up their pages. If you are splitting this activity up in 2-3 parts, it will be helpful for students to have a folder or place to put their work in until the next lesson so parts don’t go missing. Once students start gluing, remind them to only glue where they see the gray circles with the glue stick picture. #skeletoncraft #halloweencraft #buildaskeleton

This fun and festive activity gets kids thinking about what makes their Thanksgiving celebrations uniquely theirs, whether it’s a feast fit for royalty or a day spent dodging burnt stuffing disasters. Writing and drawing take center stage in this perfect blend of reflection and hilarity. First, students will dive into their family’s traditions. Do they watch football with a side of pie? Go on a turkey trot that’s more “stroll” than “run”? Or perhaps their family’s tradition involves grandma’s famous sweet potato casserole (with a marshmallow topping so high it needs its own zip code). Kids will craft their best descriptive writing, sharing the quirks, laughs, and delicious details of their Thanksgiving Day. Next comes the artistic twist! Students will illustrate their favorite tradition. Whether it’s a turkey-shaped centerpiece, a chaotic kitchen scene, or Uncle Bob snoozing in front of the TV with pumpkin pie crumbs, these drawings bring their stories to life. This activity isn’t just about celebrating Thanksgiving traditions, it’s about discovering what makes the holiday truly special: food, family, and enough laughs to stuff your heart as full as your plate! Enjoy!

Halloween Alphabet Matching Game – Spot It Style Cards Early Literacy

Halloween Alphabet Matching Game – Spot It Style Cards for Early Literacy This Halloween card set is based on the familiar “ Spot It” style game but adapted for alphabet and early literacy practice. I like to bring it out in late October when my class is full of energy but still needs structured learning. The mix of playful competition and letter recognition makes it a good fit for both Pre-K and early elementary groups. The set includes 93 cards in total, arranged as three complete decks with 31 cards each. Every card shows six different Halloween-themed pictures. The fun part is that any two cards always share exactly one picture in common. Students race to find the match between their card and the one in the center pile. Whoever names it first keeps the card. The round continues until the stack is finished, and the player with the most cards wins. There are three versions of the cards: round, square, and hexagonal. I usually print one full set, laminate it, and keep it in a small box for the season. The round cards feel most like the original game, while the square version is quicker to cut. The hexagons are eye-catching and add variety. In my kindergarten group, this game helped students practice quick recognition of letters and pictures. It also encouraged turn-taking and teamwork. For ESL learners, the visual clues and repeated naming of pictures gave extra support with vocabulary. Some of my students even started making up their own rules, such as timed rounds or team challenges, which kept the activity fresh. The game works well in literacy centers, as a short brain break, or as an activity for early finishers. It requires very little preparation beyond printing and cutting. Because it is flexible in design, you can use just part of the deck if you want a shorter game. This resource is best suited for preschool, kindergarten, and grade 1, but I have also seen older students enjoy it simply as a seasonal challenge. It is a playful way to bring some Halloween atmosphere into the classroom without losing the focus on learning. Warm regards, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Holiday & Seasonal, Math, Early Math, Numbers, Holidays, Halloween, Seasons, Fall, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities
These pumpkin themed number cards are perfect for students who are learning with a pumpkin theme. They make the perfect tool for students to learn the letters of the number. What is Included: This set includes one number card and one number word card for all numbers up to 20. Ways to Use the Cards: Play a matching game by matching the numbers to their number words. Attach a paper clip to a number card and use a magnetic fishing pole to "catch" the numbers for a fun fishing game. Use a sand or salt tray for students to practice writing the numbers or number words on each card. Have students find the numbers that you have hidden around the room for a fun number hunt. Place the number cards in numerical order. Create a pocket char game where you place the cards on a pocket chart and hide a picture behind one of the numbers. The students will guess which number the hidden picture is behind. Add objects so students can count to the number on the card. When to Use: Math Center - Place the cards in a math center for students to match independently or with a partner. Morning Tubs or Baskets - Place the cards in a morning bin for students to work on while their classmates arrive to class. Small Group Activities - The teacher can pull aside a small group of students who need extra practice identifying numbers and number words. These pumpkin number cards are a great activity for students to practice number recognition during the fall months. They are a low prep activity for teachers to prepare for students. Simply print, cut apart and laminate for durability. These cards can be stored in a task box for easy set up, clean up, and storage. Skills Assessed: These cards, depending on the materials added, can assess both number recognition and number word recognition.
