About Halloween...

Hi, dear friends! One of the funniest celebration in Britain, Halloween /31 October- 1 November/ comes in the end of the next week. The children wear costumes of ghosts and witches, make pumpkin lanterns and say: "Trick or Treat". I'd like to share the song "Trick or Treat" which is suitable for this event. Hope that you will like and learn it with your students.
Warm wishes, Reny

Thanks, Betty! It will be interesting to learn more about "Halloween" traditions in Portugal! I'm going to create with my children some funny projects, too. I'll publish them when I'm ready.
Kind regards, Reny

Well, portuguese tradition at this time of the year doesn't called Halloween.
The tradition is called "bread for God" (Pão por Deus) but it happens mostly at Lisbon area. Children ask for bread or dried fruit from home to home and say friendly spiels to those who give something and not friendly spiels for those who don't open their doors.
Nowadays, globalisation brings Halloween.

Many hugs, Reny
