How this list was compiled: Written for this page on 2026-10-03: sentences about the things of Halloween at home and at school (costumes, pumpkins, the class party and the walk from door to door). Nothing in them is meant to frighten: the costumes are animals, jobs and everyday things. The plural of every noun in the plural rows was checked in its entry at en.wiktionary.org (license CC BY-SA 4.0) on 2026-10-03, and a noun with two accepted plurals was left out; the irregular past forms were checked in the same dictionary that day. Every whom follows a word such as to, for, with or from. A sentence marked needs a comma opens with a clause or lists three things and is missing the comma after the clause or between the first two things. The grades are our suggestion and no standard is quoted. No brand or character is named, and no published worksheet was copied. Licence: own work
