LEVE:

8/9 YEARS

OBJECTIVES:

- To learn and practice how to do questions
- To improve pronunciation
- To foster imagination
- To share their feelings and emotions

ACTIVITIES:

1. The students will ask different questions in order to guess what is inside. But the answer can be only YES/NO. For example: is it big? Can you eat it? Is it a toy?...
2. If they cannot guess what is inside, they will close their eyes and one by one can touch the object inside. They have to share with their partners their feelings and emotions. After than they can give their ideas. In my case, inside the box there is an elf puppet but, can be anything, or several things

3. Now they will create their own mystery box. We can divide the class into different groups so the activity will be shorter than allowing every student to do it in front of the class.

(I can't paste the poster, but it is Halloween theme with the title and four words related to the video: baby boy, halloween, tradition, mummy, problem) If will guide my students with questions, so that they can start talking and make predictions on the story . For example What Halloween tradition could it be?
