Build Some Spooky 3-D Shapes – Halloween Craft Activity

What do you get when you cross 3-D shapes with Halloween characters? Not sure? Click the Download button to find out!

Use these templates in the weeks leading up to Halloween to practice identifying 3-D shapes or working with nets.

The nets included are:

Cylinder net
Rectangular prism net
Hexagonal prism net
Cone net
Cylinder net

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities.

With adult supervision, cutting skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

strengthen finger and hand muscles
build dexterity and fine motor skills
improve hand-eye coordination
develop focus and attention.

And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork, button a shirt and tie shoes, write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills!
