Here’s a list of FREE French Halloween resources and videos because we all know how much students enjoy celebrating Halloween!
Use your students’ interest to your advantage. They’ll be super willing to practice writing, using new vocabulary, pretty much any kind of classroom task and activity as long as there’s a mummy or vampire in it 🙂
So let’s get this Halloween party started, shall we?
French Halloween Freebies
(to read the blog post about this reading comprehension activity, click here)
I created the cards so your students can play bingo, but you can use the cards to play tic-tac-toe as well!
Give each pair of students a card. Student 1 chooses an image. If Student 1 can name the illustration correctly, he/she gets that spot! Next, Student 2 chooses another square, and so on.
To make it more challenging, have students create sentences with the words instead of just naming the images.
Laminate the cards so kids can use dry-erase markers to make their crosses and circles in tic-tac-toe style!

This set of Boom cards will have your student working on reading comprehension.
They read simple sentences about Halloween and decide whether they’re true or false.
You can use the cards on tablets, computers, interactive whiteboards, or even projected on a screen.
Use the cards for individual practice (you can assign the set of cards for each student individually), or in whole group.
In whole group activities, you can divide the classroom into 2 teams, have students take turns reading the sentences aloud and deciding as a group what the right answer is.
You could also use this in guided reading, one-on-one assessments, etc.

This list of Halloween freebies was great! I’m homeschooling my daughter for the first time this year (Jr. Kindergarten) and I’m trying to incorporate lots of French. But it’s very difficult to find French resources for homeschooling. I appreciate this list, it has saved me hours of searching online. I would love to see lists like this for other holidays and themes as well. Thank you so much and look forward to receiving more helpful emails like this one!
