Topic/Skill: Halloween/Listening

Feedback provided: Today we discussed Halloween. I knew Dave had heard of and probably celebrated Halloween so I focused the video to introduce today's topic by discussing the origin of Halloween and how it has changed over the years. I had Dave listen to the video and fill out a dictation exercise. I was happy to see that he was so interested in the topic since it was his favorite American holiday. After the exercise, I pointed out an idiom they used in the video as well as reduced forms that were mentioned. After that, we went over Halloween-themed idioms and their figurative meaning. 

Lesson learned: This was a great lesson because it had unintentionally been a review of many of the topics and lessons we had been going through. Because it was familiar to Dave, he responded very well and accurately with the questions.
