JOGOS E ATIVIDADES PARA O HALLOWEEN

Oi pessoa!

A cada dia que passa mais se aproxima a grande festa! Esperado por todos nós, o "Halloween" é uma comemoração que, literalmente, "incendeia" as aulas de Inglês! Como profissionais da área, sabemos que quando se trabalha este tema com dedicação, só temos que comemorar os resultados! Pensando nisso, dedico esta postagem a sugestões de games e atividades bem bacanas e simples de serem executadas. As dicas foram extraídas de um site que encontrei fazendo algumas pesquisas referentes ao tema proposto. Portanto, se preferirem acessar o conteúdo original, basta acessar:

 Balloon Jack-O-Lanterns:  blow up an orange balloon for each Ss. Out of construction paper make face pieces to create a jack-o-lantern. Glue the face pieces to the balloon.  (TP: V: jack-o-lantern, balloon, face vocab).

 Candy Jar Guess:  Put candies in a jar and get the Ss to guess how many there are and share them out afterwards.  Special halloween shaped candy (especially eye balls!) would be really great.  (TP: V: large numbers.).

 Costume Party:  Something all kids love to do - dress up in a Halloween costume.  Prizes can be given for best, scariest, funniest, etc.  (TP: None).

 Guess the Pumpkin Weight:  after carving the pumpkin have Ss try and guess the weight - use scales. Ss can weigh other things first to help their guess.  (TP: V: weigh, heavy, light, numbers.  F: weighing things).

 Halloween Cards:  Supplies: card, colored pens/pencils, glitter.  Ss make cards for other Ss in the class.  (TP: V: Halloween card.  F: writing messages).

 Halloween Concentration:  Play the concentration card game using Halloween flashcards.  (TP: V: Halloween vocab).

 Halloween Walk:  Form line on one side of room. Cross room in following ways: 1). Fly like a bat; 2) gallop like a cowboy on a horse; 3) hop like a bunny; 4) roll like a pumpkin;
5) dance like a princess; 6) creep like a cat; 7) walk like a skeleton; 8) float like a ghost; 9) stomp like a monster.  (TP: V: Action verbs with Halloween vocab).

 I Went Into a Haunted House:  Ss sit in a circle.  Student A says "I went into the haunted house and saw a witch".  Student B contines: "I went into the haunted house and saw a witch and a black cat".  Continue around the circle.  (TP: V: various Halloween vocab).

 Making Masks:  Making masks is always fun and is also a good review for parts of the face, colors and names of characters (Dracula, monster, witch, etc.).  Simple masks can be made with paper plates and string.  A competition can be held and prizes given for the best, the funniest, the scariest, the most colorful, the biggest.  (TP: V: Face vocab, colors, Halloween characters).
