The leaves are turning, the coffee is (hopefully) still hot when you get to it, and classroom routines are finally starting to stick. Fall always feels like the moment when teaching shifts gears — you’ve settled in with your students, and now you’re ready for fresh ways to keep them engaged.
That’s where this roundup comes in. We’ve pulled together a bunch of fall-themed Boom decks that mix fun with focus. We have everything from kindergarten counting to high school functional skills, with stops along the way for languages, music, and even a few freebies.
Fall brings so many opportunities for hands-on, joyful learning in the elementary classroom. These decks allow younger students to practice the skills they need — number sense, phonics, vocabulary, and articulation — while engaging with the themes they love. Think pumpkins, apples, and autumn leaves woven right into activities that also check all your instructional boxes. Perfect for centers, small groups, or independent practice when you want learning to feel like play.
Middle schoolers don't want “more work” so we kept it relevant and fun. These decks incorporate core skills such as multiplying decimals, building vocabulary, and practicing inferences, and wrap them in games, puzzles, and real-life scenarios.
For older students, engagement often comes from relevance. These fall-themed decks are designed to connect classroom learning to the real world, like making money decisions, staying safe in the kitchen, and building independence through daily living tasks.
Vocabulary lists and grammar drills can feel dry, but adding a little seasonal context can make a big difference. These French and Spanish decks use fall words, rhymes, and stories to make language learning more concrete and memorable. They give students an authentic way to connect what they’re learning in class to the world they see outside their window this season.
Music teachers and special educators often have to hunt for resources that feel fresh and engaging. This set of fall-themed decks strikes the perfect balance: combining rhythm practice, ear training, music theory, and note recognition, all wrapped in seasonal activities that students will actually look forward to. They’re simple to drop into a lesson, use as warm-ups, or keep on hand for skill review that doesn’t feel repetitive.
And because every teacher loves a freebie, we’ve pulled together some no-cost decks to add to your fall toolkit. These are quick wins, mazes, math puzzles, bingo games, and more that work beautifully as warm-ups, early-finisher tasks, or just a little seasonal fun when you have ten minutes to fill: zero prep, zero cost, all engagement.
Fall is a season of change, and it’s the perfect time to refresh your classroom routine. This Fall Deck roundup offers a cross-section of engaging, seasonal decks you can plug in right away. Whether you’re supporting kindergartners, middle schoolers, or high schoolers, Boom has something to help make learning a little more engaging and teaching a little easier.
