Spookley the Square Pumpkin Craft {and Spiders Close Read}

I am so excited to share my latest pack with you guys!  I read The Legend of Spookley the Square Pumpkin last week to my class and they LOVED it!  It's a great book with a really positive message.  It is a MUST for your pumpkin unit!
The pack includes a lot of writing prompts and the craft pattern.  
You can find it {HERE} on TpT!
It's on SALE this week!
Here's a link in case you don't have the book!



Here are some examples of what my students did last week:
In other news, I just finished my Spiders Close Read, too!  You can find it {HERE} on TpT and it has also been added to my Close Read Bundle #2!!

Leave a comment below and I will choose winners for both packs!
Happy Sunday!

  10. I would really love to win! We are doing a spider mini unit this week in my Kindergarten class so this would be a great resource to have. We are also taking a field trip to a local fruit farm in two weeks to take a wagon ride and learn about Spookley the pumpkin. It would be a perfect addition to my pumpkin unit!:)
