Activity Overview


Halloween is a holiday that can be celebrated in a bunch of different ways! Everyone has their own traditions, from parties to carving pumpkins. Have students explore the different ways to celebrate halloween! In this activity, students will create a grid or a spider map to illustrate some of the celebrations.


  • Halloween foods and candy
  • Buying pumpkins, gourds, corn stalks and other fall harvest items
  • Carving Jack-o-lanterns
  • Bobbing for apples
  • Praying for the dead
  • Parades (esp. Greenwich Village Halloween Parade)
  • Fortune telling/divination games
  • Making Halloween crafts

You can also use this activity for more historical and/or religious aspects, discussing All Hallow’s Eve, Samhain, and different practices throughout history. Students will enjoy learning about how the holiday has changed over time and how different culture have influenced the ways we do or don't celebrate it now!
