More fall, less fright
Not every October read needs ghosts and ghouls.
Bring seasonal energy to the curriculum and social-emotional goals you’re already working toward. Explore changing seasons through science. Investigate nocturnal animals. Read about courage and overcoming fears. Choose a mystery that gets students predicting and inferring.
How many Hallo-Reads can you read?
A little BOO-st for your reading routine.
We’re going on a soundscape scavenger haunt! Each time you read aloud with a growl-tastic soundscape, add another haunted frame or tombstone to your interactive 3D Boo-k Boulevard.
Read one story. Celebrate it. Pick the next. Repeat.
Build your Boo-k Boulevard—and your read-aloud routine—one story at a time.
Keep the faBOOlous fun going
Educator-created activities make it easy to turn favorite Hallo-Reads into opportunities to talk, think, move, write, create, and learn. Included printables and no-print novelties can be used on the spot to keep the learning going.
Less prep. More BOO for your buck.
