Arthur's Thanksgiving is a great book to read for students to learn about Thanksgiving and the traditions that can be followed with this holiday, students will also learn how plays are set up, how to work together with peers, and how to solve problems. Students are presented with a variety of comprehension questions based on what happens in the book, Arthur's Thanksgiving. Students can answer these questions as the book is read to them, as they read the book independently or they can use the text for lookbacks once the book is finished.

This is a scavenger hunt using task cards that analyzes Halloween traditions or similar holidays that occur around the world.

This resource begins by challenging students with a mission, escape the haunted house that they are trapped in. 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 #6. 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 successfully escaped the haunted house!

This activity would be a great as a center activity, a group activity, a holiday activity on or near Halloween, etc. Students will be engaged with the learning while having a fun time trying to solve all of the clues!
