Halloween in China

Image
China doesn't really celebrate Halloween but there is evidence that it is creeping into the country.  In my classroom I taught them a little about how we celebrate Halloween.  We watched a few clips from family Halloween movies, a music video of "The Monster Mash" by Mannheim Steamroller, which they loved, and a clip from "Thriller."  It's interesting because I had to introduce them to who Frankenstein is and Dracula, even though they know what a vampire is.  They also know what zombies are and werewolves.  I had them write a report on Halloween and from that I learned a lot about this strange holiday.  In any case, it wasn't like the United States but we had a great Halloween.  Halloween Decorations to buy at Metro, which is a warehouse store similar to Costco.  These are my classes.  We made spider cookies with oreo cookies.  This was a totally new experience for them and I believe they LOVED IT!!  ...
