Хэллоуин (разработка открытого внеурочного мероприятия)

Lesson: Halloween

Objectives:

Talking about Halloween and popular Halloween characters.

Target Vocab:

Halloween, ghost, monster, witch, black cat, wizard, mummy,

bat, zombie.

Setting the atmosphere :

Before class think about how you can make the room and lesson

come to life. This all depends on your resources, but some ideas

can be: lights - turn off some lights and close curtains to make

the room darker; place some jack-o-lanterns around the room;

have some scary music playing in the background

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2uRvudYppY); dress

up as a Halloween character.

Kids wait outside the classroom until it is time to go in. Stand at

the door and as each student enters say "Happy Halloween!" and

have them reply "Happy Halloween".

Teach new vocab and play "Flashcard memory game". Before

class, print out the flashcards for the Halloween characters you

are going to teach (monster, witch, black cat, wizard, mummy,

bat, zombie)

Play "Halloween Walk"

First get the "ghosts" picture or mask to stand up and show you

how ghosts move around (saying "Whooooooo!"). Next get the

monsters to stumble around going "Rhaaaaa!", and so on. You

are introducing the sounds from the song you are going to sing a

bit later. Finally, get everyone to stand up and shout out

instructions (e.g. "Move like a zombie!") and get everyone to

move around making the sound. Here are the sounds for each

character:

• ghost (Whooooooooo!)

• monster (Rhhaaaaaa!)

• witch (Cackle cackle!)

• black cat (Meoooowwww!)

• wizard (Ho ho hoooo!)

• mummy (Grrrrrrrrrr!)

• bat (Eeekk! Eeekk!)

• zombie (Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!)

Sing a Halloween Song

I have two songs which you can choose from - just download

and play in class: Its Halloween night:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBWi8QJjbyM this song

contains many of the characters from Halloween (ghost, zombie,

etc.) and is good for older children (6 years and older). • One

Little, Two Little, Three Little Witches

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1V2KgZqrNg: this is a

nice and simple song about witches for the little children to

enjoy. Also I like video from Steve and Maggi

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEZX7nTpzuk as an

additional option.

End with some fun Halloween activities

End the class with some fun Halloween games and actives -

choose from the list below:

• Pass the Pumpkin: Students sit in a circle. Provide a plastic

pumpkin for children to pass while the teacher plays some

music. Children pass the pumpkin to the tempo of the music.

Alternate between fast and slow. When the music stops the child

who has the pumpkin stands and takes a bow. Continue.

• Pin The Tail on the Black Cat: This is a take on 'pin the tail on

the donkey'. Put a picture of a tailless-less black cat on the wall,

blindfold the students, spin them around and see if they can pin

the tail in the right place. The nearest wins a prize/points.

Do "Halloween paper plate mask craft" Before class prepare

enough paper plates for each student. They are going to make

masks and wear them so you will also need elastic to keep the

masks on. Also prepare things for making the masks - colored

pens, glitter, felt, wool, stickers, colored card, tape, glue, etc. Put

the class into 8 groups and each group sits together. Give each

group one of the flashcards (e.g. the witch) and have them make

a mask for that character. Finally, have everyone wear their

masks - you can even have a competition with prizes!
