Halloween Flashcards For You To Use
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a Flashcard is a card containing a small amount of information, held up for pupils to see, as an aid to learning. Here at ExamTime we have stuck closely to this principal even if our Flashcards have gone digital.
Traditionally Flashcards were simply written on paper and saved for an important exam. As technology evolved so too did Flashcards and with them, the ability for teachers to implement Flashcards into their classroom. We have talked about the benefits of Flashcards before so in this section we simply want to share some great Flashcards with you that will work well in the month of October. Why? Because October is a great month. There are the Halloween celebrations, Christopher Columbus Day, Leif Erikson Day and Alaska Day. If we have left an important event out in your calendar, let us know, or better still, sign up to ExamTime today and create your own Flashcard masterpiece to celebrate your day.
Leif Erikson Day Flashcards:
Vikings have always been interesting and Leif Erikson was no different. With their impressive flowing hair, muscular physiques, silver plated armour and sailing ships, they capture the imagination of classrooms the world over. Here is a great Flashcard deck based on the 970c Icelandic Viking Leif Erikson. This deck has only a few brief points so why don’t you do some extra research on Erikson and make your own Flashcard deck with even more points?

Christopher Columbus Day Flashcards:
Despite being the bigger household name, Columbus was not in fact the first person to discover America. Leif Erikson mentioned above was. However, that doesn’t mean that Columbus should be ignored. It required great bravery and navigational skills to do what Columbus did. Find out more about his exploits in the Flashcard Deck below created by another one of our users.

Alaska Day Flashcards:
Alaska Day is just around the corner. The day is celebrated on October 18th every year and celebrates the transfer of the territory from Russia to the United States which happened in 1867.
