Halloween glyph
By Pat

Children can make a jack-o'-lantern glyph. Have them draw a pumpkin shape on construction paper. Then ask the students to answer the following survey questions: Have you ever eaten pumpkin seeds? yes they would draw a stem 1" no 3/4".
2. Do you like pumpkin pie? yes draw a happy smile, no a frown, don't know, a large oval. 3. Do you like scary or happy jack-o'-lanterns? scary draw a square nose, happy draw a triangle nose. Then they ask their favorite treats and the choices correspond to a shape for the eyes. You can set up your survey any way you would like. Then the children can compare their results using venn diagrams.
