Questions and answers

What day is Halloween in 2026?

Halloween is October 31 every year. In 2026 that is a Saturday, so the last school day before it is Friday, October 30. In 2027 Halloween is a Sunday.

Are there Halloween math worksheets for kindergarten?

Yes, three. One counts stars and moons in pictures. Two are read-aloud stories within 10: bats in the barn and bell tower to add, and bats flying out of a cave to subtract. Act them out with ten counters.

How many legs does a spider have?

Eight, and each leg has seven parts. A spider also usually has six spinnerets for making silk. The grade 3 fact sheet uses all three numbers, so 6 spiders have 48 legs.

Kindergarten 3

  • Bats and ghosts: subtraction stories within 10 9 bats hang in the cave and 4 fly out, so 5 are still inside. Ten counters and a paper cave act it out.
  • Bats and treat bags: addition stories within 10 3 bats in the barn and 4 in the bell tower are 7 bats. Read the story aloud and let pupils hold up fingers for each group.
  • Halloween night sky: count the stars and moons 5 stars and 2 moons make 7 in all. Pupils point to each picture once and say the number aloud.

Grade 1 3

  • Costume parade addition stories within 20 8 children dressed as animals and 6 as robots make 14. Every sum passes ten: 8 + 2 + 4.
  • Pumpkin smiles: add three numbers Three jack-o'-lanterns have 6, 4 and 7 teeth, which is 17. Make ten with 6 + 4, then add 7.
  • Spider web subtraction stories within 20 14 spiders sit on a web and 6 slide down, so 8 stay. Step back through ten: 14 − 4 = 10, then 10 − 2 = 8.

Grade 2 2

  • Haunted hallway addition stories within 100 The school's haunted hallway had 38 visitors on Thursday and 27 on Friday, which is 65. Add the ones first and carry the ten.
  • Spider ring subtraction stories within 100 A bag of 64 spider rings with 27 handed out leaves 37. Open a ten first, because 4 ones are too few to take 7 from.

Grade 3 5

  • Bat colony subtraction within 1,000 A colony of 742 bats sleeps under a bridge and 368 fly out, so 374 stay. Both places need regrouping.
  • Costume shop addition within 1,000 A shop sold 235 costumes early in October and 480 later, which is 715. Round to check: 240 + 480 = 720.
  • Halloween multiplication stories: treat bags and parade rows 7 treat bags with 6 spider rings in each hold 42 rings. Each bag is one equal group, so pupils can skip count by 6.
  • Sharing the candy: division stories within 100 4 cousins share 36 chocolate bars equally and get 9 each. The matching fact is 4 × 9 = 36.
  • Spider, bat and cat facts to multiply A spider has eight legs, so 6 spiders have 48 legs. The 2, 4, 6, 7 and 8 times tables each get a real animal number.

Grade 4 5

  • Cat claws and foot bones to multiply Most cats have eighteen claws, so 7 cats have 126: 7 × 10 = 70 and 7 × 8 = 56. One foot has twenty-six bones.
  • Halloween show multiplication: 2 digits by 1 digit 8 rows of 23 seats is 184 seats. Break 23 apart: 8 × 20 = 160 and 8 × 3 = 24.
  • Haunted hallway groups: what happens to the remainder? The hallway lets in 8 visitors at a time. 60 visitors need 8 groups, because 60 ÷ 8 = 7 R 4 and the last 4 still go in.
  • Safety map division: divide by 1 digit A town splits 252 safety maps equally among 6 schools, which is 42 maps each. Split 252 into 240 and 12.
  • Times as many: haunted hallway stories Last year 9 families came to the haunted hallway and this year 4 times as many came, which is 36 families.

Grade 5 2

  • Carnival prize division: divide by 2 digits A carnival packs 360 spider rings into bags of 15 and fills 24 bags. Estimate first: 360 ÷ 20 = 18, so a few more.
  • Town theater multiplication: 2 digits by 2 digits 24 rows of 18 seats is 432 seats. Add two partial products: 24 × 10 = 240 and 24 × 8 = 192.

How this list was compiled: The stories, their wording and the teaching notes are our own work. The numbers are drawn fresh for every sheet and each answer key is worked out from the numbers printed on that sheet. The animal and body facts were checked on 2026-09-20: a spider has eight legs of seven parts each and usually three pairs of spinnerets, which is six (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider); most cats have five claws on each front paw and four on each rear paw, which is 18 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat); a human foot has 26 bones (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot). Candy counts, visitor numbers and party details are invented for the stories.
