Train Your Brain!
To celebrate this extraordinary day, I've created and collected a variety of brain based activities that you can use with your students to help exercise and expand their minds.
"Breakout" Puzzles
For delivery in a classroom zoom session, simply drop the link in the chat box for your students to click/access the activity prior to sending into "Breakout" rooms. Want to include this in a reinforcement activity on Canvas? You can also copy and paste the link into your assignment module for students to access that way as well.
Email Stefanie Caswell if you need help running breakout rooms or solutions/explanations with any of these puzzles.
Elementary School
Keyla's Halloween Party is an elementary level breakout activity. Primary grades can work out the puzzles together as a class and intermediate students can easily complete in small group breakout rooms on zoom.
Middle School
High School
Haunts of the Hollywood Hills Hotel is a challenging Halloween themed breakout activity designed for 9th - 12th grade students.
