Halloween-Mad Libs
Mad Libs is a game of silly storytelling. Students fill in the blanks without being able to read the sentence that they are given. They will be asked for different types of words, such as nouns, verbs, or adjectives. Once finished filling in the blanks, the story is read, using students’ chosen words. This activity can be done in pairs or together as a class. Suitable for upper-level primary and secondary.
Halloween-Taboo
Taboo is a great game for English language learners to practise speaking skills and expand vocabulary. Players on two teams or more try to get their teammate to say a word by describing it but without using specific taboo words. You can find full instructions in the download. Suitable for secondary.
