Pumpkins, Scarecrows, Black Cats—and things that go bump in the night . . . Halloween’s almost here! Let’s get our BOO on! Let’s create a BOO-OLOGY (a spooky poem.)

Below is the first line, a Halloween sound list, and just for grins, a joke. Combine them to create your own BOO-OLOGISM.

First Line: IN THE DEEP DARK WOODS . . .

The Joke: Why did the vampires cancel their baseball game?
They couldn’t find their bats.

Happy BOO-OLOGIZING!
