HALLOWEEN | HISTORY/HISTOIRE | ORIGINS/ORIGINES | COMPREHENSION LECTURE (FRENCH)

By French Made Fun!

Fuel middle schoolers' curiosity with our French Halloween history resource! Explore traditions and origins through a reading comprehension, short answer, and research tasks. Perfect for a substitute teacher, fostering independent learning during a hectic time of year.


Looking to do something a little different with your Middle-schoolers this Halloween? This independent reading, writing and researching unit will have your students better understanding Halloween's origins, traditions and cultural rites and customs. This is an ideal unit if you're not looking to do anything cross-curricular and are a language arts teacher. It's quiet and reflexive with a final presentation showcasing their discovery. It would be amazing to leave with a sub!

It is a printable document on 8.5" x 11" paper.

Reflection, reading and assessment activities are not time-consuming; however, I give my students 2-3 classes to research, and plan for 2 days of presentations. This could very well cover you for Hallo-week .

Here's what you'll find included in this resource that's carefully curated for your middle school French learners.

  • "Réflexion" - 3 separate reflection prompts which can be used as a small writing assessment. These reflections foster higher-level thinking and will have your students thinking about culture, inclusivity, and Halloween's historical changes that have occurred through time.
  • "Halloween - une recherche autour du monde!" - A mini research activity that will have your students delving into how Halloween is celebrated around the world, comparing it to their own culture and beliefs. Included in this research description is a presentation opportunity and success criteria are also included.
  • "Les origines historiques et l'importance culturelle d'Halloween" - A short reading comprehension piece which has questions to verify understanding.
  • "Testez vos connaissances" - A short two-page assessment on general Halloween history.

If you're looking into trying our a project- and inquiry-based approach in your classroom, I recommend trying any of the following resources:

  • Un avenir durable (imports, exports and energy - A sustainable future.)
  • Dragon's Den - Dans l'oeil du dragon! (Lead a Dragon's den in your classroom!)
  • Mon espèce en voie de disparition (An artsy approach to endangered species)
  • Space Food! (Space travel & nutrition)

For goodness sakes, don't forget to have fun!

Kaitlyn.

Greek Gods Scavenger Hunt (No Prep!)

By Miss Yous Clues and Resources

This is a scavenger hunt using task cards that is based on Greek Gods which are part of what that are studied in the 6th grade curriculum within Comparative Classical Civilizations in the Eastern Hemisphere for Ancient Greece. This resource begins by challenging students with a mission, complete the tasks to solve the mystery word and four digit code to have the Greek Gods offer you immortality and a seat in Mount Olympus. Students will read about Zeus, Poseidon, Hermes, Hera, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus and Demeter. This activity will have students reading about each Greek God; their symbols, what they were god of, and their importance to Ancient Greek. Check out the preview to see what each task card entails. Students will need to walk around the room reading the task cards. Each task card has a code word on the bottom which is the answer to the question/fill in the blank. The answer will NOT be found on that same task card. For example, the answer to task card #1 is found by reading the passage on task card #8. Students MUST record which task card they found the answer on in their answer sheet under the “FOUND CARDS #” column. That column will be used at the end for the 4 digit lock code. They will follow the clues to find the correct 4 digit code. Once they have completed the scavenger hunt they will receive a half sheet of paper stating that they have received immortality and their seat in Mount Olympus.

This activity would be a great review before assessments, as a center activity, a group activity, etc. Students will be engaged with the learning while having a fun time trying to solve all of the clues!

Aztec, Inca & Maya Escape Room with Close Reading Article (No Prep!)

By Miss Yous Clues and Resources

Looking for an exciting way to teach your students about soils and weathering? This Aztec, Inca & Maya Escape Room is the perfect blend of social studies content, close reading, and gamified learning! In this activity, students will explore all three of the civilizations through an engaging close reading article and four unique challenges.

Overview of the Activity: Students begin by reading a two-page informational passage that explains different aspects of each of the civilizations, (where they were located, when they flourished, achievements, etc.). The article includes essential vocabulary like terrace farming, irrigation, chinampas, aqueducts, astronomy and hieroglyphics, providing a solid foundation for students before they tackle the four interactive challenges.

Each challenge targets a different skill:

  • Challenge 1: Matching vocabulary terms to their definitions (reinforcing social studies concepts).
  • Challenge 2: True/false questions based on key facts from the reading (to build comprehension).
  • Challenge 3: Multiple-choice questions (testing understanding of key concepts about the various civilizations).
  • Challenge 4: Identifying the paragraph where certain information is found (developing close reading skills).

For each correct answer, students receive a clue—a one-digit number. After completing all four challenges, students use their numbers to solve a final puzzle and “escape” the room.

**Why Use Close Reading?:**Close reading is an instructional approach that encourages students to carefully analyze and interpret a text. In this escape room, students must return to the passage multiple times to find the answers to the questions, helping them:

  • Improve their reading comprehension.
  • Strengthen critical thinking skills.
  • Become more independent readers who can tackle complex information.

Benefits of Gamified Learning: Using an escape room format transforms a traditional lesson into an adventure! Students love the thrill of solving puzzles, working together, and completing challenges, which boosts their engagement and motivation. Here’s why gamified learning is a hit in the classroom:

  • Increases engagement: Students are naturally motivated by challenges and competition, making learning more interactive and exciting.
  • Enhances problem-solving skills: Escape rooms require students to use logic and critical thinking to solve clues and progress through tasks.
  • Encourages teamwork: As students collaborate, they practice communication and teamwork, skills essential for success in group settings.

**Perfect for Social Studies and Literacy Integration:**This escape room seamlessly integrates social studies content with reading comprehension, making it a powerful resource for interdisciplinary learning. While students strengthen their understanding of the Aztec, Inca, and Maya ancient civilizations, they’re also developing literacy skills by interpreting information, analyzing key details, and practicing vocabulary.

This is a escape room uses gamified challenges and is based on the Inca, Mayan & Aztec civilizations which is studied in the 5th grade curriculum under the following standards:

  • 5.1 The first humans in the Western Hemisphere modified their physical environment as well as adapted to their environment. Their interactions with their environment led to various innovations and to the development of unique cultures.
  • 5.1a Various forms of scientific evidence suggest that humans came to North America approximately 25,000 to 14,000 years ago and spread southward to South America.
  • 5.1b Human populations that settled along rivers, in rainforests, along oceans, in deserts, on plains, in mountains, and in cold climates adapted to and made use of the resources and environment around them in developing distinct ways of life.
  • 5.1c Early peoples living together in settlements developed shared cultures with customs, beliefs, values, and languages that give identity to the group. These early peoples also developed patterns of organization and governance to manage their societies.

If you want a fun, engaging way to challenge your students, this Aztec, Inca & Maya Escape Room is sure to captivate their attention while reinforcing key learning objectives.
