Easy Hanging Spider Craft for Halloween
These dangling spiders from Art for All Seasons are the perfect addition to your Halloween and fall lessons. Plus, you can create a simple thematic unit around your spider craft and check off a few of your content standards while you’re at it.

 

Halloween Fun: Skeleton Art Project and Science Activities
This simple “Silly Skeleton” art project was one of my favorites to do with my class around Halloween time. It is easy to integrate into a science unit, and it includes a poem for reading fluency practice. Plus, the completed art projects made a festive bulletin board. As a result, when posted altogether, they created the effect of a wall of dancing skeletons!
