The FREEBIE I’m sharing is my “hot off the press” History of Halloween Close Reading & Informational Text! This product includes an informational article on the history of Halloween, close reading questions (and answers), suggestions for before and after reading, and extension activities. I’ve also added a link to a short video from History.com that discusses the history of Halloween, as well.


Thanks for joining us in the Secondary Smorgasbord! Your product looks awesome!
Your freebie is a perfect way to incorporate Halloween into classes yet have it still connected to the curriculum. Thank you!
Halloween is such a huge celebration time, but so many young people do not know its origins. What a great lesson!

What a great resource on the history of Halloween, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the wonderful freebie!
I am starting research skills next week with a group of struggling 8th graders, and I'd love to use your article to work on in-text citations and I have a couple of questions. I can't find your email on the blog, so could you please email me if you have a minute?
