Halloween scary story worksheet
This is a worksheet I created along with the ppt, but it can be used separately.

It´s a simple worksheet with the beginning of a mystery which they have to expand, finish, change, whatever. I hope you find it useful!

CRIME VOCABULARY
This is a fill-in (with list of words provided) on court and crime vocabulary. I found it very useful while doing the crime units, and after doing the ws, we played word games with the given vocabulary and I had pairs of students write crime stories using the list of given words. It was very useful and fun, especially the follow-up story writing.
