Let’s face it. Not all teachers have time to do a full-blown, complete PBL unit. That’s where Bite-Sized PBL Activities come in!

This mini PBL unit was created with the expectation that most teachers could use and finish it in a 1-2 day time frame with their students. Perfect for the busy teacher and classrooms without a lot of time away from their standard lesson plans!

All of the hard work is done for you. Simply print the NO PREP pages, and let your students make the decisions in this fun Plan a Halloween Party Unit!

This engaging writing Halloween PBL includes:

• Unit Guide for Teachers
• Letter from Casperina, the Lonely Ghost (entry event)
• Party Planning Page
• Halloween Party Schedule
• Party Refreshments
• Party Invitation Template
• Party Poster Template
• Personal Narrative Prewriting Organizer
• Narrative Writing Paper
• Scoring Rubrics
• More!

You will begin the unit by reading the letter from Casperina, the Lonely Ghost, to the students. Place the letter in a fun envelope and make a big deal of opening it and reading it to the class. Your students’ enthusiasm for the projects will definitely be higher with this entry event!

From there, it’s up to you to decide which activities to have your students complete. Obviously, the more activities you include, the more time the unit will take to complete. Whether you choose to do a little or a lot of the unit, your students will love the writing activities!
