Halloween chit chat: starter activity for EAL students

(0)
15 Halloween-related questions to break the ice at the start of the lesson. Students are meant to talk in pairs, then share their own or their peer’s opinions with the rest of the group. Easily adaptable if necessary; I use this resource every year with B1 and B2 students. Give them a couple of minutes to respond, then move onto the next question. The idea is they spend a good amount of time talking about Halloween, practising their aural and spoken skills. This task practises a range of tenses.
