Easter


Recommended Posts

Anyone doing anything different apart from easter nests etc. Plus any good ideas anyone used for a literacy focus - just need a bit of a change for the last week.

The festivals DVD Easter is a good starting point for giving the children ideas for what they would like to do for Easter.The teacher writes a poem about Easter using the senses to write each line and the children choose what they like to see,hear,taste,touch etc

Palm Tree parade with children taking turn to be the king on the donkey: "We have a king who rides a donkey and his name is Jesus". The rest of the class use their branches to welcome him into town. Make palm trees out of newspaper. Lay 3 pieces of newspaper on the floor. Roll them up and tape them. Cut up one end in 4 places. Put finger in the “cut end” and hold one piece. Pull other end.

In the past have;

 

cut out & decorated egg shapes to make cards/pictures

 

egg hunt - indoors hidden pictures of eggs all around the setting

 

chocolate nests - like rice crispie/cornflake cakes but use big shredded wheat as they look more like twigs and put mini eggs in the nests

 

planted daffodil bulbs....bit late now maybe

 

spring pictures / blossom / tulips / daffodil pics.....use egg box bottoms to make trumpet of daffodil

 

Easter bunny pics / role play - make bunny ears / rabbit hats - basket and cardboard/plastic eggs to collect and deliver....extend by putting numbers on and deliver to numbered doors etc

 

have hot cross buns for snack time

 

chicks......

 

Oh and a few Easter threads in here

 

Hope some of that helps
