Let's warm up our brains by getting acquainted with some Halloween Vocabulary.
Hope you like this fun activity.
Now, you are going to listen to a short story narrated by your teacher. You'll have the challenge to fill out the spaces, while listening. Pretty easy, I can say.
So have a good time! Just click on this link: A Halloween Story
As a kid, I
always liked Halloween. I liked dressing up in a 1 …………………that I pick
out at the store or, more often, we 2…………. out of odds and ends at
home. The best part 3……… …………… trick-or- treating. Some years,
I went with my brothers and sisters. When I got a little 4………….., I went with my friends. We would go to
the houses in our 5………………….. and knock
or ring the doorbell. When the 6 …………. opened, we would yell, "Trick or
treat!‚" We never played 7………………
and always got treats. The neighbor would put some candy and chocolate bars in
our bags. We would go home at the 8…….. of the night and eat them to our 9…………………' content.
To get ready for Halloween, my parents 10………… ……………. pumpkins from the 11…………..or from the make-shift pumpkin patches on the 12…………….of the road so that we could make jack- o- lanterns. We 13 ………… each pumpkin and cut off the top, scooped 14…….. the seeds from the inside, and 15………….. faces on the front. At night, we would put 16…………. inside the jack-o- lanterns and put them on our doorstep. Sometimes we carved scary faces and sometimes they were funny ones.
I remember that one year, we had a Halloween 17………….. Our friends 18 ………….. ………… dressed up as witches, ghosts, superheros, cartoon characters, and anything else you can think of. We would play 19………………… games like bobbing for apples, and we even created a haunted house in our 20…………... It was a blast! Halloween is truly a holiday for kids.
