Halloween 5 th Grade Lesson Plan All activities will take place in the school gym. Each activity is a station that the children will rotate through with their assigned group. Note: Only supplies can be sent to school for parties. Please do not have parents send money to school. Stations: 1. Limbo – Have students form a line and attempt to limbo under a pole without touching the ground. (Will need a broom handle or some other object to be held by two adults.) 2. Bubble gum blowing contest – Each student receives a piece of bubble gum and attempts to blow the largest bubble. (Will need approx. 100 pieces of bubble gum and rulers handled by adults.) 3. Pumpkin Ring Toss – Hook the ring on the pumpkin. Make it more challenging by using smaller rings. Witch Pitch – Kids pitch candy corn into a cauldron. You can score the kids based on how many candy corns they get into a cauldron, or you can just let them toss and paly with no score. http://www.chicaandjo.com/2010/10/28/halloween-party-game/
