For working different aspects of the English language and

Nowadays this festival has become more important than before
in our culture.
What Happens?
The first activity is to sing a song typical of the festival where
there will be grammar and vocabulary exercises.
The second activity consists in writing a story invented by the
students in small groups.
They have to explain it to the rest, with the opportunity to
create a small representation.
Finally the teacher explains the origins of the festivity.
Giving a new use for materials already used

that they made, so completely free.

First the students decorate the classroom with the material which
themselves have created.

This consists on a gateway wherevery kid show his own costume.
Third: all together sing the first song and do the traditional "trikes or
treat“ of Halloween.
To conclude they make a summary and discuss what they have seen,
sense,experimented and, if they have enjoyed or not.
The Didactic Unit has been an interesting but also a complex task.
Why Complex?
we found it a bit to fit the different ideas that emerged within
a single unit temporarily limited.
The act of writing the unit and make the
presentation in English
Why Interesting?
we liked this set of activities that we could implement some of
the proposed systems in class
to evaluate ourselves among ourselves is a way of
learning and experiencing much of what we have created.
A positive experience.
