A 35-question Halloween quiz
Let’s use a quiz to see how much you know about Halloween! There are a total of 35 questions.
Even if you have no idea what the answer is, you can choose from three options, so one of the fun parts is being able to learn as you take the quiz.
There’s a time limit, but if many children want a bit more time to think, it’s a good idea to pause the video as they go.
Beyond just dressing up and getting candy, it would be great if they develop interest in the world and in the event itself by learning about its origins and meaning.
Change quiz! Where is the different one?
Have fun with the preschool class! As children grow into the preschool class, they start noticing all sorts of things and their powers of observation develop day by day.
A quiz that’s sure to get them excited is the “Change Quiz.” An illustration is shown, and the simple rule is to find what has changed within the time limit.
It requires concentration, so the children will likely be engrossed as they participate.
The time limit is 30 seconds.
After 30 seconds, the answers are revealed, so it could be fun to pause the video and ask the children what changed.
Rhythm de English
Let’s enjoy Halloween while engaging with English! How about having fun learning Halloween-related characters and items in English as you play? By experiencing English to a rhythm, it seems we can nurture children’s feelings of “I want to try!” and “This is fun!” Plus, if you try a silhouette quiz that uses the English words they’ve learned, they can play while applying what they remember, helping them pick up vocabulary through play.
Take this opportunity to give it a try!
