Hallowe'en


Read the text and find the correct word/expression.


Children dress up as ghosts/guests and make lamps/lambs out of pumpkins.


They put them in the windows at nine/at night.


In the evening children go out in groups and knock at/look at people's doors.


Most people give the children a treat/tree.


This is usually a sweet, some chocolate or a coffee apple/toffee apple.


If they don't get/won't ge a sweet, they play a trick on them.


They sometimes put leaves/thieves, grass/brass or bones/stones in the letterbox/litterbox.


At Halloween parties pupils/people often play games.

Halloween goes back to the time when the Celts/kids lived in England.





Key:
