This solo show tells you about three autumn traditions which get the family outdoors as the days grow colder and the season of Thanksgiving approaches. This episode is less about communication in international business and more about being aware of other cultures around us - an important prerequisite for intercultural competence.

If you would like to have the popular Guy Fawkes poem that children learn for the 5th of November, be sure to sign up for my weekly newsletter where you get a mini Business English lesson including a Quizlet based on vocabulary from the podcast. It's something fun to do with the children this week.

Take care now, do let me know of any other wonderful traditions, customs, celebrations and events that are celebrated in your area of the world. If you're feeling brave come onto the show, I'll coach you before we go on air. Email me via info@bytesizedenglish.com

For Teachers: Soon there will be a complete lesson plan to accompany this podcast episode on Lehrer Markt Platz for a culturally aware English activity with children, ideal also as a last-minute substitution plan for educators and teachers.
