This collaborative poster (Have a Safe & Happy Halloween) art activity is great to build community in your classroom. It also creates a beautiful work of art to put on a bulletin board that students can be proud of!
An older-grade class could create this poster to hang in the hallways near younger-grade classrooms to wish them a Happy Halloween! Or, students can make this poster for their own classroom’s Halloween celebrations.
There are 35 pieces that make up one 100 cm x 135 cm poster, so there should be enough for each student in your class to do at least one! If you have extras, you can also colour one yourself as the teacher, or have other teachers who work with your class colour in a piece to symbolize community.
How to use this resource:
- The week before Halloween, give each student a piece of the poster at random. Have them colour in their piece, but do not reveal the design until everyone has finished colouring. Have the class work together to solve the puzzle on Halloween.
- Show the class the completed poster layout first. Have them figure out which piece they have (using logical reasoning) and colour their poster piece according to the example. They can get creative using different lines and patterns in their design.
