Homework for November 3

Hello guys,

I hope you had a lovely week! Last time we watched and analysed a PET Speaking Part 1 video and we did some writing practice PET writing Part 1.

We also talked about Halloween, but, because of the internet connection, we couldn't watch the video. As I promised you, here it is: Bet You Didn't Know: Halloween 
I gave you the text in class, so please watch the video and aswer the following questions:

1. When did Halloween begin?

2. What happened the night of Samhain?

3. What people do to keep ghosts away?

4. What does the word Halloween mean?

5. In your words, what was "souling"?

6. In your words, what was "guising"?

7. Who brought the Halloween traditions to America?

8. How much do the Americans spend on Halloween in a year?

Write full sentences (Subject + Verb +Object) on a separate sheet of paper. Please also check with a dictionary the meaning of the words: doorsteps, relatives, roaming, soul, pastries, revive, custom.

As homework do also pages 4, 5 and 6 (senza Listening) from this page.

Happy Halloween or just have a nice weekend! :)
