Lesson overview:
This Halloween lesson plan is perfect for B2-level students looking to boost their English skills, all while getting into the Halloween spirit! This lesson is all about getting students to think critically and express their opinions on a hot topic: should Halloween be cancelled? Through a variety of activities, students will practice their listening and speaking skills while diving into the spooky spirit of the season and learning new vocabulary.
Lead-in:
To get the conversation started, students will first chat about Halloween decorations and share whether they enjoy the holiday or not with our Halloween speaking activities. Do they love the spooky vibes, or could they do without it? Then, they’ll read a mix of positive and negative statements about Halloween and discuss whether they agree or disagree. This activity is designed to warm up the group, get everyone sharing their opinions, and set the stage for more in-depth Halloween speaking activities later in the lesson.
