Halloween learning ideas at home
- Pumpkin math: Count the seeds in a pumpkin in groups of 10, guess the weight, or measure round the middle with string.
- Spooky word hunt: Write ten Halloween words (pumpkin, ghost, spider, moon, broom) and ask your child to sort them by number of letters or syllables.
- Treat sharing: Share treats equally between family members and talk about what is left over. That is division with remainders.
