Halloween traditions















































For this project we will find out:

1.- Which are the Halloween traditions of the next countries: Australia, Czechoslovakia, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, Portugal and Vietnam.

2.- We will make an information card of each country and will upload photos to share our work.

3.- Now that we know about different traditions you can tell what you think about them. Which traditions you like? Which ones you don't like? Do you think is important to respect all the different traditions? Why?

4.- For HOMEWORK: Talk to your parents and other adults that you know. Ask them the next questions: Did they celebrate halloween when they where kids? Why or Why not? How did you celebrate it? Did you celabrate other festivities (Day of the death or All Saints Day)as a kid?

5.- Post the answers using the next structure: After talking with.... (my mom, my dad, my grandmother, my grandfather, etc.) I learned that....


6.- We will be searching for information about Halloween:

In which country was Halloween invented? Why was Halloween celebrated originally?, Why do we use costumes and go trick or treating in Halloween?

7.-We will make visual aids to explain secon grades the traditions of Halloween.

8.-We will explain second graders the traditions of Halloween.

  20. The Pollution.

    I am going to speak about the pollution and what we can do to avoid it.

    Air pollution is very dangerous for the environment, but the problem is not for only one country, is for all the world. One of the most contaminated cities is Mexico City and we need to do something for a better living way.

  21. But we are a lot of persons now and the means of transportation are not enough. Some persons want to go to work by bicycle but there are a lot of cars and a lot of accidents and the distances between home and work are too long.

    ResponderEliminar
  22. The programs I think may be useful are:
    The government should build a special lane for all the bicycles.
    If your car is more than 10 years old, they need to pay more taxes than the new ones (because the old cars emit more contaminants).
    Put trucks for only one place.

    ResponderEliminar
  23. But there are disadvantages that are:
    The road will use more space.
    The persons don´t have a lot of money to be spending it in their cars.
    The trucks could contaminate a lot.

    But is to help our world, DON´T CONTAMINATE!!!!!!!

  31. Sra. Nelson - I wasn't able to figure out the best place to post on your blog, but you can share this with your students!
    I lived in the Marshall Islands for a year. During Halloween, the kids would go trick-or-treating. But instead of saying "trick or treat," they would sing these words to the tune of "London Bridge is Falling Down"
    Happy, happy Halloween
    Halloween
    Halloween
    Happy, happy Halloween
