There are so many fun activities that you can do with your students to help them celebrate this spooky holiday. Here are three Halloween math activities that your fifth grade students will love, including a free trick-or-treating activity to try with your students.
This is a great activity for your students to do on Halloween day, or the Friday before. It's a great incentive for the class (i.e. if you all finish this activity you can trick-or-treat) or a fun way to build culture through a school-wide event.
To do this, team up with a few other teachers to give out candy to students while trick-or-treating. Print out a stamp card for your students, with notes on which teachers they can go to, and send them on their way to the other teachers. Teachers can stamp or sign the cards as they give out candy to students.
I've made a free trick-or-treating stamp card for you to use, with instructions on how to run your school-wide trick-or-treat and stamp cards designed for 3, 4, 5, or 6 classrooms:

This activity is a fun way to help students practice independently while they create a spooky masterpiece.
You can copy a Google Sheet for each of your students and have them copy it. Students solve the problems and incrementally unlock a Halloween-themed picture. It’s great because it auto-grades, so students get instant feedback on what problems they’re getting right and wrong, so that they can improve.

I spent 7 years in the classroom working to make math magic in middle school, by integrating math, art, and technology. I started Congruent Math to share this all with you.
