In Case You Missed It: October 31 ? Halloween Fun Facts

Trick-or-treat give me something good to eat! Did you know that there were 3,227 candy and nut stores in the United States in 2021 or that there were about 130 million homes or apartments where people live (possible places for trick-or-treaters to visit)? With our?Halloween Fun Facts?handout, students can explore cool facts related to this day. Then teachers can use the complimentary teaching guide to turn the handout into an activity. For one of our suggested activities students prepare a business plan for a local formal wear and costume rental store in their community. Where will you be trick-or-treating?

Plan ahead: Check out our Election Day (November 2); National STEM/STEAM Day (November 8); Native American and Alaska Native Heritage Month Fun Facts and Kahoot Game; and Thanksgiving (November 23) resources for teachers.
