Halloween is exciting every year, and Learning A-Z offers teachers a variety of learning resources to help celebrate the spooky holiday! As students prepare their costumes and carve pumpkins, engage them in reading and writing activities that incorporate Halloween themes. A subscription to Reading A-Z, Raz-Plus, Writing A-Z, or all three products allows you to access fun materials to complement any classroom Halloween activities.
Reading A-Z and Raz-Plus
The mystery and suspense of the Hollow Kids series will keep your students engaged in reading long after Halloween.
Halloween-themed Shared Reading books are designed to help you model close reading, text-dependent questioning, and strategies for asking and answering questions. Our Shared Reading book titles include From Pumpkin Seed to Jack-O-Lantern, The Halloween House, and Hector’s Halloween.
The Poetry Book Trick or Treat! A Halloween Rhyme is ideal for grades K–2 and will prepare them for the excitement of Halloween.

Writing A-Z
Wordless books are a great way for students to hone their imaginations and practice their storytelling skills. With the Scaredy Crow Wordless book, students put their own twist on a story around two crows and a scarecrow.
When students are inspired to write their own scary stories, the Writing A-Z Build-A-Book digital tool allows them to draft and edit stories, add illustrations, and publish them for the class to enjoy.
