Students will research different Halloween traditions around the world and be assessed throughout the lesson. They will complete a pre-assessment quiz, weekly discussions, and create flashcards to demonstrate their growing understanding. To conclude the project, students will take a final exam testing their knowledge of each country's unique celebrations. They will also present their findings to the class in a poster presentation, sharing what they have learned about global Halloween traditions.

Summary:

2. Students will be asked at the beginning of the class about their prior knowledge about different
Halloween traditions celebrated around the world. They will be given a quick write about their
prior knowledge. Some students may not have prior knowledge about different countries. They
will freely express their thoughts. I will monitor my students by assessing what they have learned
throughout the lesson. They will be given a quiz and a quick write. I will hold a group discussion
once a week asking what they have learned so far. Group discussions will allow individual
voices to be heard and students can learn from one another. Students will also be expected to
create flashcards on key ideas and themes. Flashcards will help refresh their memory of
important ideas and terms. Students will take a final exam at the end of the lesson. This final
exam will test their knowledge about each individual country they researched about. Students
will also present their poster boards in their groups in the class. The question board must consist
of questions to ask to the class about Halloween. Proper and cited evidence must be presented
and detailed on the poster board. I would like to see students engage with one another on an
intellectual level sharing what they have researched and learned.
