Today I want to share a few Halloween lesson ideas with you. Last night I finished and posted a FREE Halloween Writing Prompts activity to my TPT store. There are four different writing prompts included in this freebie: fictional narrative, procedural writing, news article, and a journal entry or personal memoir. I let my students have their choice of what writing prompt they wanted to use, and they are so excited to finish their rough copies, so they can use the special writing paper. Click on the picture below to download your own copy.

I love the writing prompts! I actually saw them on the Classroom Freebies blog. So excited to be following you! I can't wait to use the prompts with my kiddos on the 31st! The Chris Van Allsburg book is awesome! My coworker used it recently to spark some ideas for her "Spooky Stories" unit, as the pictures are very...well...creepy in some ways. I like the idea of using them to infer, too!
