Halloween is one of my favourite holidays to celebrate at school! From costumes to candy and decorations to crafts! There are so many fun things to do together! But how do you get your students to develop and use the French Halloween vocabulary in a fun and engaging way? This French Halloween Activities mini-bundle is the perfect solution!
These activities help expose your students to the FRENCH Halloween themed vocabulary in a way that keeps them engaged and motivated!
Bingo d’Halloween
Have your students build their own Halloween bingo sheets. You can print them in colour or in black and white. I enjoy having my students colour their own bingo sheets, but it’s totally up to you! Be sure to print out a set of the words for yourself or display them on your Smart Board.
Before you start playing, be sure to practice all the Halloween vocabulary words (my go-to is a call and response format). Once you have practiced, you can begin playing! My favourite way to play is to call out a word, then show (or point to) the image. If students have the image, they must also say the word when placing their token. My kiddos love this!
Mots cachés
This word search uses the French Halloween themed vocabulary words. Have students work in pairs or individually to find all the words and identify the “phrase mystère”.
Trouve les différences
This activity involves students finding the 8 differences between the 2 images and then describing these differences to a partner or the teacher. This gets students using both French Halloween and spatial location vocabulary in a fun and relaxed environment. You can even have your students record themselves on Seesaw or Draw and Tell!
J’écris la salle de classe
My students love playing “J’écris la salle de classe” (aka Write the Room)! I print and laminate the vocabulary words and hide them around the room. Students take their recording sheet and try to locate all 12 words plus the BONUS word (I included 2 options for the bonus word). This gets your kiddos moving and having a lot of fun finding all the words!
Coloriage magique
This activity practices basic addition facts in a colour-by-number format activity. Who doesn’t love a good colour-by-number AND they are still practicing an important concept. Perfect!
And there you have it! 5 fun and engaging French Halloween themed activities for your classroom! This mini-bundle is available in my TPT store if you are interested! Be sure to tag me on instagram (@colourfulclassroom) with your students in action! I would love to get connected!
