Fall Poems and Crafts!
Fall Leaves
Red, yellow, orange, brown
Leaves are falling all around.
See them dance
In the cool, Fall air.
Rake them and pile them
And bag them with care.
The Wise Old Owl
A wise old owl
sat on an oak.
The more he heard
the less he spoke.
The less he spoke
the more he heard.
We all should be like
that wise old bird.

Fun Halloween Activities for PK-5th Grade
Candy Corn Hunt
Recommended for Grades PK-2nd
Materials Needed:
*Box/Bag of White Rice (at least 2 boxes)
*Rubbing Alcohol
*Food Coloring (red and yellow)
*Large Zip Bag
*Sensory Table/Water Table/Bucket/Storage Bin
*Candy Corn (the yellow, orange, and white kind)
*Cookie Sheet
Process:
1-You will be separating your rice so you can make 2 colors (since the rice is already white, you won't need to do anything to it for the white color). Use at least 3-4 cups of rice for each color.
2-To dye the rice, just pour your rice into a zip bag, add a splash of rubbing alcohol and about 8 drops of food coloring. Close the bag and shake it up!
3-In order to make the orange color even, it works best to pour the alcohol in a bowl and add the red and yellow before pouring it into the bag.
Ghost Slime
Recommended for Grades 3rd-5thMaterials Needed:
*1 teaspoon borax
*1/4 cup warm water
*1 bottle clear school glue
*water
*a handful of wiggly eyes
*disposable cup
*bowl
SAFETY NOTES:
1- Do not get borax in your mouth (or your student's mouths). It is toxic. This activity is meant to be done with close adult supervision!
2- If a student has sensitive skin, you can let them wear gloves or play with the slime in a plastic bag.
Process:
1- Mix the borax in the warm water and set this aside. I use a plastic disposable cup.
2- Dump the clear school glue into a bowl. Fill the glue bottle up with warm water and dump that in too. Mix these two completely.
3- Dump a handful of wiggly eyes into the glue/water mixture.
4- Carefully pour the borax into the glue/water mixture. Mix it all well. After a minute, you will need to use your hands to knead it all together. It will stop being sticky and hold together well very quickly.

Halloween Freebies for Grades 4th and up!
Your students will love this fun and engaging creative writing activity that will have them rolling story element dice (setting, character, obstacle, and a story starter) to create a random set of story components. Once students have their story components, they’ll plan and write a spooky story as they combine each element into an entertaining writing piece.
