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.

A very fun and straightforward game for the whole class to have fun with. Perfect to use as revision before exams. Students don’t need plastic tokens as long as they keep a tally of their points - a good idea is for them to swap papers with another team to mark each others’ answers (avoids cheating) and then report back to the teacher who can add / deduct points from each team after every round is complete. There is a suggestion on each stage of the game on how much students are able to bet and their minimum spend, but you can easily adapt this. The quiz covers: regular present tense verbs irregular 1st person present tense verbs fully irregular present tense verbs stem-changing verbs (present tense) regular preterite tense verbs irregular preterite tense verbs near future tense verbs
