Event form: quiz.

The target audience: 5-8 grade.

Objectives of the event:

• conduct a quiz to interest children in the culture of another country;

A few days before the holiday you should spend Classroom hour dedicated to the tradition of celebrating Halloween. Tell children that the holiday is over a thousand years old. Previously, it was called the Saiman holiday, during which sacrifices were made to please evil spirits. Now it’s just a fun tradition (information about how Halloween celebrations are held wouldn’t hurt), which smoothly migrates to Russia, delighting many children and adults. Surely, children will be interested in hearing the story of an Irishman named Jack, who was addicted to gambling and alcohol. However, this did not stop him from deceiving the Devil himself, for which, after his death, he was expelled from hell into darkness. The farmer asked the devil for something to light his way. The devil threw him a smoldering coal, and Jack put it in the turnip, which he did not have time to finish. This is where the tradition of carving a pumpkin and inserting a candle into it came from.

The quiz is held at a Halloween party at school, and it is advisable to ask children to dress up in themed costumes or masks that they make themselves.

The first person to answer correctly is given a card. Based on the results of the quiz, three winners are selected, with the largest number cards. You can also conduct a quiz by dividing children into teams. Prizes are awarded at the discretion of the school administration or parent council.
