It’s nearly October, so for those of you who teach it, here is the complete Genki English Monster Guide To Halloween with Lesson Plans, Games and lots of very cool bonus printables!
Halloween Ninja Tip: Rather than just teaching Halloween vocab, try using Halloween fun to re-inforce the structures we’ve done, or are going to do, during the year e.g. Who?, body parts, Colours, What do you want to be (for Halloween), Prepositions (Where is the spider?!) etc. This extra repetition really works wonders!
Halloween Ninja Tip 2: And of course if you don’t celebrate Halloween where you are, or have personal or religious reasons not to teach it, then no worries. Most of the Genki English curriculum are core parts that we need to get the results, but these Halloween ideas definitely fall into the “fun optional extra reinforcement” category 🙂
Be genki,

P.S. And if you want a softer, more cute Halloween type thing with dressing up, have a look at the Little Red Riding Hood lesson 🙂
