When October comes around, we all start seeing pumpkins and signs of Halloween. Carving pumpkins to make jack-o’-lanterns is a traditional Halloween activity. Do your students know the history of why pumpkins are carved?

This resource gives a brief history of where the tradition of jack-o’-lanterns comes from. After reading the brief article, there is a short question worksheet to be completed. The worksheet asked questions based on information in the article and includes an area for students to draw their own jack-o’-lantern face.

Also included is an adapted student friendly version of the Irish folktale Stingy Jack and a Halloween themed Word Search.

Students recognize the difference between primary and secondary sources:

This activity will help students practice determining primary and secondary sources. This skill is important across a variety of subjects.

When given a source, students will determine if it is a primary or secondary source. Based on their determination, they will be directed to draw a detail to complete a picture. This allows students to add their own creativity to their work. It also makes it easy for the teacher to determine understanding of the concept presented.

Provided follow up questions increases rigor. These questions can be used for early finishers, as a written assignment, or to lead class discussion.
