National Geographic published an interesting article that can be used in schools. It's a good resource for students that will enriched lessons. 
The article includes a wonderful list of useful links that teachers can explore on their own way, according the students profile they are teaching.

Education: 

Halloween is a cross-curricular subject and students will love to work and explore their creativity in different matters. At the same time, they will evolve curricular skills.

  • Curricula: Languages, Arts, Music, Civics
  • Level: All levels: (primary, elementary, high junior education)

Students will be encouraged to be creative using their own smartphones and tablets in the classroom, devices that help prepare students to thrive in an increasingly digital world. 

And they love it! They are active in the activities that teachers propose for the course.

  • Google Doodle:

Speaking about Halloween... Have you watched how Google doodle team and friends had funny carving giant pumpkins in the Halloween spirit?
