Cause we all know that the best way to keep your students focused during the lead-up to trick-or-treat is to bring Halloween into the classroom. 

But even if your students don’t celebrate Halloween, I believe they are still fascinated by monsters, vampires, zombies, and other supernatural characters. This means you can also use these resources all year long.
