This template should serve as a general guideline for the materials you produce for your page in this sections.  Please remember the following:

1.  Your lesson should be designed for a specific group and language level.

2. As always, your ideas here should be connected back to the CEFR levels and competencies.

3. The materials should be well-scaffolded.

4. They should be written with other teachers as audience / user in mind.

5. You should have a minimum of 1, maximum of 3 learning outcomes.

NOTE: Your first step should be to DUPLICATE this template before editing.  Do this by looking at the "pages" bar" on the right-hand side of this website.  Go to the page titled "360 Template" and then click on the 3 dots visible to the right.  Choose "duplicate page" from that menu.  Then rename YOUR new page (NOT our original template) to reflect your own title.  If your group modifies this template rather than duplicating it first, both Dr. Sadler and Dooly will mock you without mercy.  Don't edit this template!!!

As you finish your lesson, please delete this section since it will not be of interest to others who may use your task in the future!!!

Graveyard Stories

Author names: William, Anna, Elena

For Teachers 

This activity can be embedded in a Halloween lesson leading up to them writing their own spooky stories. As the 360° photo only introduces them to various scary stories from across the world as well as a video on the background of Halloween in America, the teacher would need to provide scaffolds for writing spooky stories or the vocabulary needed as well.

Target Group

5th or 6th grade

How this fits into a larger lesson or unit

This lesson could be linked to storytelling in general or just a fun lesson to do around Halloween.
