HAPPY HALLOWEEN !!!
On October 31st, 2012, we held
Halloween activities for students in the high school Los Albares in Cieza. And
in my opinion, it was a success! We had two groups of Bachillerato students
lead different activities while we had different groups of ESO students enter
and participate in the activities. Since this was an English-based activity, the
students were asked to speak English as much as possible.
Our
different activities included: horror story, starring 4 bachillerato students;fortune
telling, where the older students told the younger students their futures
through card readings or palm readings; face-painting,
students were allowed to bring out their creative side by painting their faces
just as children in America would on this holiday; costume competition, after having their face painted, students
would race against the clock to create unique costumes to gain points for their
team; arts and crafts, here, students
had a chance to sit down and make bookmarks or straw witches to have
memorabilia from their time at the Halloween program; finally, the pumpkin race, in pairs, students
were asked to hold a small, plastic pumpkin between their foreheads and run to
the end without dropping it! These activities offered the students the
opportunity to learn a little about a different culture and holiday, while also
practicing their English skills.
My opinion about Halloween Activities.
ReplyDeleteI had a great time on Halloween activities. The teachers of the English department helped us prepare Halloween activities. We worked together and we did some activities for the children, who had fun while they were listening to us speaking English.
I was painting the faces of the children. The teacher taught us to paint them as monsters, princesses and vampires.
I think everything went very well and I want to repeat next year. I really enjoyed watching as all the children laughed.

I'm going to talk about one of the activities in this blog. I have participated in the activity ''halloween''. From my point of view, I think that it's a very interesting activity because you learn about other cultures, other celebrations etc. You can practise English at the same time as you amuse yourself. The activity was very good, students were very interested and participated a lot.
