“All Hallows Eve” or “Halloween” is a superstitious tradition that originated over 2,000 years ago by the Celtic people of Great Britain and France (Polton, 30). More historic information and exciting Halloween activities can be found in the Education Curriculum Library and the children's’ collection.
The pathfinder lists resources for Halloween activities in the Elementary grades. The items listed are merely a sampling of the available resources in the Education Curriculum Library and the children's’ collection. We hope this pathfinder is used as just the beginning of a fun discovery experience.
