This lesson plan and accompanying resources takes a very child-active approach to learning. Most of what is learned is through the children researching it themselves and presenting what they've discovered to their classmates. The art lesson linked to it creates a lovely Amazon display for the classroom and the children's projects can also be displayed on it.

The lesson plan and PowerPoint Presentation are geared towards explaining the origins of Halloween to children, what we do to celebrate Halloween ourselves, and the ways in which Halloween is celebrated in various countries around the world.
