B1 ESL lesson "Celebrating twice" — used to for past habits with New Year traditions in Juoksengi

Festivals and Traditions Vocabulary

This lesson takes students to Juoksengi, a village on the border of Sweden and Finland that celebrates New Year twice. Key words include time zone, fireworks, countdown, celebration, festivity, local traditions, midnight, parade, and festive meal — helping learners describe festivals, parties, and cross-cultural holidays.

"Used To" for Past Habits and Traditions

Students master the structure of "used to" for past habits, repeated actions, and traditions that have changed over time. Grammar rules are presented clearly with practical examples connected to celebrations.

Interactive Exercises: Listening, Video and Role-Play

Learners listen to dialogues, complete gap-fills, identify facts vs. opinions, watch videos, and role-play conversations. These tasks make grammar practice meaningful and connected to real-life contexts.
