About this resource

This Halloween-themed quiz focuses on wordplay and riddles that connect descriptive clues to popular candy brand names. The content is appropriate for middle school students in grades 6-7, as it requires students to make creative connections between literal meanings and figurative interpretations while drawing on their knowledge of common candy brands. Students must demonstrate critical thinking skills by analyzing descriptive phrases and matching them to candy names through puns, homophones, and conceptual associations. For example, they need to connect "sneers or chuckles in an evil way" to "Snickers," or understand that "where Earth can be found" refers to the "Milky Way" galaxy. This type of puzzle-solving develops students' ability to think flexibly about language, recognize multiple meanings of words, and make creative connections between concepts. Created by Corey Ernst, a Fun teacher in the US who teaches grades 6 and 7. This engaging quiz serves as an excellent brain teaser activity that can energize middle school classrooms during Halloween season or any time students need a fun mental challenge. Teachers can use this as a warm-up activity to start class on a positive note, as a reward activity after completing more intensive academic work, or as a team-building exercise where students work in small groups to solve the riddles together. The quiz also works well as a brief end-of-class activity or as part of a Halloween celebration in the classroom. While this quiz focuses on entertainment and creative thinking rather than traditional academic standards, it supports language arts skills found in standards like CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.6.5 and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.7.5, which emphasize understanding figurative language and word relationships, helping students develop their ability to interpret language creatively and think critically about word meanings.
