Halloween Favorites!

Halloween is one of my very favorite holidays! 

Why? Well, first of all, it's a chance to be something you're not. What kid (of all ages) doesn't like to play pretend?

I also love Halloween because of all the great children's literature out there! Here are some favorites! (These are Amazon affiliate links!)

Who doesn't love this one?

I'll be exploring the world of bats this week with my class. Gail Gibbons is my favorite author of information books for second graders. She presents information in a way that little ones can understand


I have two copies of In a Dark, Dark Room, and both copies are barely holding together! That's a good sign that it's a popular book!
 
I also have a few Halloween-related joke books, and they are wildly popular! (It's also an excellent time to introduce homophones since most jokes depend upon a double meaning!)

On Halloween day, I usually read a kid's version of the classic The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. If I have a class that can handle it, I'll turn off the lights, but I don't want to scare the dickens out of those sensitive ones!
 
Last but certainly not least is my very favorite Halloween story, the Hallo-wiener! Who doesn't love a book where the underdog becomes the hero? (Pun intended!)

Besides books, I try to squeeze in some Halloween fun wherever I can!

  1. My new favorite Halloween book is How Many Seeds in a Pumpkin! I ordered it this summer and I love it! It is a great book to use in math class.
