The Spookiest Time of the Year!

"Do they dare?" .......... "Yes, they dare."

-The Berenstain Bears and the Spooky Old Tree by Stan and Jan Berenstain


******************************************************************************

I love this ~spooky~ time of year! The air is getting crisper, routines are falling into place at school, and the seasonal candy is, of course, delicious!

I created a new product for grades 4-5 just for this time of year!



Here's all it includes:

Math Activities (most with answer keys!)*Multiplying and dividing decimals by powers of 10

*Adding and subtracting whole numbers and decimals
*Powers of 10
*Reading and writing decimals
*2 pages of multiples (skip-counting) practice
*Rounding decimals
*Place value practice
*Multiplication facts review 0-5
*Multiplication facts review 0-10
*Division facts review
*Order of Operations 

Brain Break Activities:

*"This or That?" game
*Word Scramble

Literacy Activities:

*Thank you letter and stationary
*Halloween essay prompts and stationary
*Partner interview
*Editing practice
*Halloween figurative language
*Halloween facts and opinions
*Analogies
*"Evidence Expert" story and questions

Plus a Student Packet Cover in with 2 background choices!


I thought these pages would be great for morning work, stations/centers, homework, or practice pages to accompany your lessons. This would also be perfect to copy some pages from if you need a substitute this time of year!


It's only $5, and here's the link to my TPT store:

I also created some Halloween-themed Division BINGO!




The BINGO set includes 32 different cards (plus a blank card), and a teacher "call list." It's only $2. Shazam!

We just had a BINGO night at my school this past Saturday. The kids had the greatest costumes! (Although the dead bride FREAKED ME OUT.) I wore my Ron Weasley sweater I got from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, but I don't think most people got the reference... maybe next time I need to wear a red wig. :)




Happy fall!
