Typical Halloween costumes are the witch, ghost, skeleton, monster, vampire or picture 2 / picture 3 . Young people have fun making their own costumes, but some prefer to buy them. In the afternoon, the children put on their costumes and have a Halloween party at school. Schools are decorated with picture 4 / picture 5 , ghosts, witches and bats. It is a popular tradition to make picture 6 / picture 7 out of pumpkins. People put them in front of the windows of their homes. There are funny Halloween games, such as bobbing for picture 8 / picture 9 . Favourite Halloween foods are candied apples, nuts, liquorice, popcorn and pumpkin pie. American and British children and teenagers go trick-or-treating on Halloween evening. They go from house to house in their costumes and ring picture 10 / picture 11 . When the door opens, they shout, “Trick or treat!” People usually give them sweets or picture 12 / picture 13 . If not, the children play a trick. They write on windows with picture 14 / picture 15 or spray shaving cream on cars and people.

    Listen, read, and pick the pictures

    A short text about Halloween at an American elementary school – children take their costumes in, there is a party, there are sweets – read aloud and printed on the page at once, with gaps in it. Each gap is filled by choosing a picture rather than a word.

    Reading along while listening is the useful part: a beginner who cannot yet follow speech alone can follow it on the page, and the pictures keep the answer from depending on spelling.
