Easter – Introduction Lesson

1. Introduction

Revision

Start the lesson by revisiting the previous topic. Use a simple and engaging method—such as a song, short game, video, story, or joke—to help students recall what they learned last time and transition into today’s lesson.

New Topic

Introduce the new vocabulary and topic with an engaging starter. Choose something age-appropriate and fun: a song, short video, story, or active game will help students connect quickly with the new material.

2. Study – Learning the Vocabulary

Look at, listen to, and repeat the new words together. Encourage students to say each word out loud several times to build confidence. Make it more fun by varying how the words are spoken—loudly, quietly, slowly, quickly, happily, or in silly voices. Let students suggest their own creative styles.

Use the PowerPoint or flashcards provided on the right-hand side of the page to support visual learning.

Additional Activity Ideas

Scavenger Hunt

Hide Easter cards or Easter Egg Hunt cards around the classroom, hallway, or school yard.

1. Students search for the cards and mark them on an answer sheet.

2. If using Egg Hunt cards with pictures, students can use tally marks to track how many of each Easter-related image they find.

3. This activity reinforces vocabulary recognition while encouraging movement and engagement.

4. Wrap-Up

Choose a key point from the lesson that you want to highlight to the students. It might be:

• something the students did especially well — take a moment to thank and praise them

• revisiting the vocabulary using the PowerPoint presentation or flashcards (images only)

• completing a worksheet

• giving a small homework task (e.g. teach 2–3 words to someone in your family)

• repeating the lesson starter song, game, video, or story
