Halloween
is a holiday that Americans celebrate every year on October
31st. It is an ancient pagan holiday that started in Ireland.
The ‘een’ in Halloween comes from evening. This is because centuries ago it was
an evening when people spoke with the ghosts of their family and friends!
Today
it is a fun, exciting holiday when people carve pumpkins, dress up in
costumes and visit people’s homes, and say
‘trick or treat!’ to get some candy!
Another
fun Halloween activity is the LSI Halloween party that we have every year.
Here, you and your friends can play games, carve a pumpkin, eat candy and
practice English vocabulary words like “haunted”, “jack o “lantern” and
“spooky”! You may even be the winner of the LSI best costume contest!
