Elementary Halloween GamesElementary Halloween GamesElementary Halloween GamesElementary Halloween Games
Elementary Halloween games for the classroom can be used for a Halloween class party or simply a treat for your class now and then, in the lead up to Halloween.
There are many different games that can be played at school and the good news is that many of these games are also educational.
On the next slides we will describe few suggestions for different types of Halloween games for school that are suitable for the classroom.
If you are looking for Elementary Halloween games that can be used to reward your class for working well during the lead up to Halloween, you might like to try a Halloween word game.
Instead of the regular Hangman spelling game, you can play this game with Halloween words and call it Halloween Hangman.
Use words like ghost, witch, mummies, vampire, ghouls etc.

Another version that you might like to try is the Halloween Hangman Sentence game.
For this version instead of using a single word, you can use a spooky Halloween sentence. Make up a sentence about ghosts or something ghoulish and draw the dashes for all of the letters in the sentence. Then just play like the regular game of Hangman filling in the letters as you go.

There are also elementary Halloween games that can be used to practice math skills. You can use the tradition counting game Buzz and give it a Halloween theme by changing the word Buzz to Boo or a different Halloween word. The game is played with the children counting around a circle but no one is allowed to say a number that contains the word seven or a multiple of seven. These numbers are replaced with the word Boo. So instead of saying, seven, seventeen, or fourteen the word Boo is said in its place. A child is out if they make a mistake.

If you are looking for
more active
elementary
Halloween games,
you might like to try a
game of Wild Card.
You will need to
designate the four
corners of the room
to four different
Halloween characters
such as vampires,
goblins, ghosts and
mummies. Also write
these four characters
on four separate
cards with one on
each card.
The children then dance around the
room to Halloween themed music
such as Monster Mash.
When the music stops they choose a
corner of the room to go to.
The teacher then draws out one of
the four cards, without looking them
and holds it up for all to see. The
children in this area are all eliminated
and have to sit out until the next
round is played. This is repeated until
only one child remains. This is the
winner who can then be given a
prize or the privilege of choosing the
cards in the next round.
