Students begin with recording what they already know about the two holidays on a KWL chart. Then, students write down what they wonder about the two – what questions do they have? Next, students read facts about the two holidays and decide which it best describes. Finally, students record what they learned on their graphic organizer! You can either have students cut out the pieces (they’re pre-scrambled!) or just have them record which fact describes which holiday.

Included:

  • Know, Want to know, Learn graphic organizer
  • Page for students to organize facts (Halloween/Día de los Muertos)
  • 14 facts associated with one of the two holidays
  • Answer key

    This is a great resource for helping students understand the differences between Día de los Muertos and Halloween! I love that it gives students the opportunity to compare the two celebrations while learning about the cultural significance and traditions of Día de los Muertos. It’s simple, engaging, and perfect for incorporating culture into the Spanish classroom. A very useful activity for this time of year!

    Great resource for the classroom. The materials are clear, organized, and easy to implement. It worked well with my students and supported the learning objectives effectively.

  3. Amy Herbst Vassallo –

    Loved this resource for my classroom! I used the drag and drop for my 3rd grade classroom as a whole group activity and used the writing graphic organizer for my 4th graders. It was a great way to review all of the material that they learned on this topic.

  4. Gabriela M. –

    This visual was great! It helped my level 1 students see differences between Halloween and Day of the dead as quite a few of them thought they were both the same. This is a great visual that helped them understand culture and it also got them to ask questions.

  5. Raquel T. –

    It was the perfect way to help students compare Halloween and Día de los Muertos. The KWL chart and fact sorting made it simple to introduce both topics and show the differences. A great print-and-go lesson that combines the two holidays effortlessly!
