October 31 – In Case You Missed It: Halloween Fun Facts
Halloween Fun Facts [ [link removed] ]

Which place do you think has a larger population—Tombstone city, Arizona, or Bad Axe city, Michigan? Maybe you’d like to plan a visit to find out?

As Halloween fast approaches, don’t forget to share our Halloween Fun Facts [ [link removed] ] with your students!

Settle your students’ excitement about this spooktacular occasion by sharing interesting data such as populations of U.S. places with spooky sounding names and the number of U.S. candy and nut stores. Use the accompanying teaching guide to lead students in engaging writing activities about the new facts they learn. For example, students can choose one of the places in the “Spooky Places” section of the handout and use their imagination to write a paragraph describing it, like whether people there are friendly. What the landscape looks like…is it more rural or urban? Is it a quiet place?
