A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Give learners page 1 and keep the suggested answers on page 2. Preview effigy, torch and display and explain that each bank item is used once.

  1. Solve the definitions of bonfire, sparkler, rocket and crowd, then complete Bonfire Night and firework display.
  2. Check Britain and November using the information given in the worksheet, then distinguish safety from tradition and warm.
  3. Discuss a public display or a nighttime tradition; keep the safety discussion general and do not demonstrate fireworks.

Support and extension

Support with event vocabulary groups. Extend by describing an imagined organised event. The key is suggested; accept another bank allocation only if meaning and the use-once rule both work.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
