Party, party!

While thinking of dance styles I couldn't help thinking about the various types of balls, fiestas, fesitvals and so on where they take place.  How many types of party can you think of and which ones are common in your country of birth?

In the US, what would you wear to a:

  • cocktail party
  • birthday party
  • reception
  • fund-raising gala
  • tea party
  • picnic
  • retirement paty
  • backyard barbecue
  • dance party
  • ball
  • graduation party
  • wedding party
  • Halloween party
  • New Year's Eve party

Party vocabulary would be a good follow-on to, or a combintation with, a lesson about clothes.

Today, preparing for a camping trip with my dog, I kept thinking about all the pet products, health, care and training vocabulary necessary if you live in an English-speaking country.

I really must get back to giving ESL classes so I can put some ot these ideas into practice.
