    HALLOWEEN IDEAS FOR THE CLASSROOM

    Cute and easy ideas for Halloween art and writing

    How do you decorate for Fall and Halloween?

    Our room transforms with each added art projects, and I love them all!

    I especially love projects that involve tracing hands, like these spiders below.

    We also made pumpkins – and some pumpkins that turned out a bit more scary than I had intended!

        No, I just made tracers out of tag board with approximate shapes, and they did a wonderful job! All a little bit different! 🙂
