These Halloween Vocabulary Flashcards are the perfect resource to bring seasonal fun into your classroom while building essential language skills. Featuring 24 Halloween-themed words such as objects, costumes, animals, and food, this set provides engaging visuals that support ESL, ELL, and elementary learners. Each card comes in two versions—text and picture-only—making them highly versatile for a variety of classroom activities.
Why Teachers Love Them
Teachers call these “more than flashcards” because they can be used as task cards, memory games, or vocabulary drills. The text version helps emerging readers, while the picture-only version allows for flexible use in multilingual classrooms. The clear, easy-to-read font ensures accessibility, and the cards can be laminated for durability so they last for many Halloweens to come.
