Summarizing Our Short Week of Easter Activities

 

 

 

 This was a short week, as Good Friday is a school holiday. Throughout the week we did a variety of activities to celebrate Easter.

* Taking an egg pattern and old wallpaper books, the children got to cut and paste pieces of wallpaper to create egg mosaics.

* Using a rabbit pattern another teacher gave me (she used it on paper plates), the students colored, cut, then pasted it onto a paper bag to create puppets. The back view shows how I let them glue cotton balls on the tail.

* Of course, we also graphed our jelly beans.

* And Thursday culminated with our egg hunt.

   Here's Wishing Everyone a Wonderful Easter!

Spring Egg Hunt

Today is Good Friday.  We have that holiday off as part of a long Easter weekend. 

Yesterday we had our Spring Egg Hunt.  Just for fun, rather than have the kids go running about with their baskets, I have the children line up on the sidewalk with their baskets.  When I say, "Go!", they run and grab 2 eggs (one in each hand) and hurry back to drop them in their baskets before heading out to find more.  Not only does it make the hunt last a little longer, but it gives the students some extra exercise.

Happy Easter, Everyone!  May the bunny leave you lots of goodies on your lawn!
