7th Grade Halloween Independent Work Packet
HALLOWEEN | HISTORY/HISTOIRE | ORIGINS/ORIGINES | COMPREHENSION LECTURE (FRENCH)
By French Made Fun!
Fuel middle schoolers' curiosity with our French Halloween history resource! Explore traditions and origins through a reading comprehension, short answer, and research tasks. Perfect for a substitute teacher, fostering independent learning during a hectic time of year.
Looking to do something a little different with your Middle-schoolers this Halloween? This independent reading, writing and researching unit will have your students better understanding Halloween's origins, traditions and cultural rites and customs. This is an ideal unit if you're not looking to do anything cross-curricular and are a language arts teacher. It's quiet and reflexive with a final presentation showcasing their discovery. It would be amazing to leave with a sub!
It is a printable document on 8.5" x 11" paper.
Reflection, reading and assessment activities are not time-consuming; however, I give my students 2-3 classes to research, and plan for 2 days of presentations. This could very well cover you for Hallo-week .
Here's what you'll find included in this resource that's carefully curated for your middle school French learners.
- "Réflexion" - 3 separate reflection prompts which can be used as a small writing assessment. These reflections foster higher-level thinking and will have your students thinking about culture, inclusivity, and Halloween's historical changes that have occurred through time.
- "Halloween - une recherche autour du monde!" - A mini research activity that will have your students delving into how Halloween is celebrated around the world, comparing it to their own culture and beliefs. Included in this research description is a presentation opportunity and success criteria are also included.
- "Les origines historiques et l'importance culturelle d'Halloween" - A short reading comprehension piece which has questions to verify understanding.
- "Testez vos connaissances" - A short two-page assessment on general Halloween history.
If you're looking into trying our a project- and inquiry-based approach in your classroom, I recommend trying any of the following resources:
- Un avenir durable (imports, exports and energy - A sustainable future.)
- Dragon's Den - Dans l'oeil du dragon! (Lead a Dragon's den in your classroom!)
- Mon espèce en voie de disparition (An artsy approach to endangered species)
- Space Food! (Space travel & nutrition)
For goodness sakes, don't forget to have fun!

FRENCH | MAISON HANTÉE/HAUNTED HOUSE | HALLOWEEN | PBL | PROJECT | CREATE | FUN
By French Made Fun!
Your middle schoolers are bored and tired of the same coloring sheets, crosswords, and pumpkin cutouts they've seriously been doing for years. Do them a favor and switch up your Halloween routine with this fun project-based Halloween unit which features cross-curricular content in math and language arts.
In this unit, you (or your sub!) can easily lead an independent, self-guided project for your middle-school students in grades 4 through 8. As with all of my products, you'll never see frilly hard-to-read fonts or babyish images. My products are intended for your students who think they're adults, but aren't quite there! They're loaded with examples and easy-to-understand language.
In this 13-page resource, you'll find the following activities, templates, prompts, examples and tasks that will keep them busy for days!
"Une maison hantée thématique" - An activity that will get your students brainstorming a theme for their haunted house and a final reflexive activity on making their choice.
"Donnez des frissons!" - An activity intended to have students stick to their "theme" and give details about the different rooms or areas within their haunted house. This activity should bring to life their design and concept.
"Le plan d'étage" - A guided example of a building plan including a "légende" with typically used symbols in engineering to construct their one- (or multiple-) storey haunted house on paper.
Also included is a large-format example to display for your students who need the extra visual supports.
Also included is a blank sheet for students to draw their haunted house's building plan.
"Mesures de ma maison hantée" - An activity to push your students' mathematical brains. These activities have step-by-step examples on changing the scale of their "paper" haunted houses to a realistic measurement, as well as calculating the perimeter and area of each of the areas within the house! Formulas are given and explained if you haven't quite got here, yet! This step will include multiplying decimal numbers.
"Des paragraphes terrifiants!" - This writing activity will have your students thinking about audience and the purpose of writing. Miniature graphic organizers are provided for your students to create descriptive, persuasive and narrative paragraphs as well as a poster project to "sell" their haunted house!
"Boutique Bouh!" - A series of math activities to boost your students' abilities to estimate and add decimal numbers including:
Boutique Bouh!'s store prices to be used in 2 other activities:
Story problems/written problems.
Building a mathematically specific treat bag!
"La liste de courses" - An activity that will have your students sticking to a budget when choosing the items they'll need to create the haunted house of their dreams! This activity includes a catalogue of items and prices at a local hardware store, and your students will have to calculate based on quantity, add and multiply decimal numbers, and finalize their total bill which must not surpass 1000$.
"Potions des monstres" - An activity on ordering decimal numbers from smallest to greatest.
If you're looking for basic Halloween themed worksheets, I've got those here.
