Day 4 of the 31 days of Halloween 2020 New Resources for ESL or EFL Students


Day 4. Halloween Numbers printable!!   Just the numbers 1 to 10 to do activities in class.

Print the Pumpkin Numbers template and have the students color the numbers as you dictate them. It’s numbers and colors review. They can even say the color for each number. Teacher: Color Number 1 red.

The students cut all the numbers and the games will start.

Students can make a number sequence on their desk. Then, ask questions about the color of each number.
Teacher: What color is number 2?
Students: Black!
Teacher: Number two is black.

Using magnetic numbers students can match one number to another.

I used the Bingo cards from the last resource to match the number representation.

Using the cards from the previous resource and placed a card under each number. Ask questions:
Teacher: Who is number 3?
Students: The Devil!
Students: Number 9!
Teacher: Witch!
Teacher: The Haunted House!
Students: Five!
 

I placed the number cutouts on recycled CDs. I cut yellow cardboard to cover the CD. Then, glued the number. It is easier to manipulate online or in class.

 

Use manipulatives to match the numbers to the amount each number respresents.

I am adding the numbers words for more activities.

                                             

I am sure you can think of more games and activities, leave me your idea below. Try a printable domino game for your warm up or wrap up.

Day 3. Halloween small cards!! 

Just 24 cards with the main vocabulary words used in Halloween. The cards are small enough for online teaching or small groups approach.

The cards can be used to teach or review the vocabulary. Video:

And now, the games! The most obvious, Memory Game. Just print double and you have Memory! A video:

I came across a game that I used to play with my students years ago. It’s called SNAP! You might have played,too. Print 2 sets of cards. Students mainly pay in groups of 4. Distribute all the cards, students place all the 6  cards face down on a pile in front of them. The first students turns over their top card of their pile and say the Word.  The next student turns over the top card say the Word again. And so on. When two cards are the same, the first player to say SNAP! And slap the two cards wins the two cards. The winner is the one with the most sets of cards. Take a look.


Using a recycled old CD case as a board. Students write the Word that is on each card.

Vocabulary can be written using magnetic letters 

Sorting can happen using plastic plates. I wrote the words person and thing and had the students sort the cards.

A Grid can de done on a small board for online teaching or just for small groups. I placed a magnet behind each card. Make the grid as big as you want. I created an example here. You say a number letter combination and students will say what is there. Or you say the Word and the say the number-letter combination of its location.

Look at it.

Play Spelling Bingo. Students complete their spelling grid with the words from the cards. You call out the bingo using the cards.


I am sure you can think of more games and activities, leave me your idea below. Make sure to review the numbers!   https://eflelementaryresources.blogspot.com/2020/10/day-4-of-31-days-of-halloween-2020-new.html

Day 2 of the 31 days of Halloween 2020 New Resources for ESL or EFL Students

 Day 2.  Halloween BINGO game!!  Today it is the BINGO game! I love playing this game in class. There is a template for the students.

The calling cards for the teacher. I only added these colors. If you need more colors just color the students template or let me know to make them for you. 

There are more things to do with the calling cards. I suggest students sort the cards on their template to review the vocabulary.

Incorporate speaking ¡ Take a look.

The sorting can be done on a pocket chart or on the table.

The student’s template can be turned into a mobile. I found this idea of using straws to do it. It was quite easy. I used thin straws but maybe thicker straws would be better. I passed yarn through the Straw to put the mobile up.

 Finished look.

I would love to see how how you used the templates.

Day 1For today, I planned a printable book. It can be done in class or at home.

 The students will have to trace the phrases using either one color or tracing the color Word in the same color. You can vary the instruction as much as you want.

Make your own book and read it to the students online or in class. You can also read the colored versión.

                              Cut up all the pages.

I assembled the pages by gluing a strip of paper to each page. I stapled them together.

I used Halloween duct tape to put the book together.

I would love to see how how you put your book together. The next blog post is the Halloween Bingo for the little ones:   https://eflelementaryresources.blogspot.com/2020/10/day-2-of-the31-days-of-halloween-2020.html
