Last
Monday, as I was wrecking my brain about what to teach my students and
simultaneously scrolling through Instagram. I noticed an exceptional amount of people
posting Easter-related pictures: their outfits, the Sunday dinners, and some
people even had dyed eggs. Then it hit me - I’ll teach my students about
Easter!
Although
the main reason for this holiday is the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I decided
to go in a different direction that was more suitable for my audience. I sat and reminisced about my Easter celebrations growing up, thinking about going on Easter egg
hunts and dying boiled eggs, and I decided to recreate this experience for my
students. I had a mini-Easter egg hunt in the classroom and all the students
LOVED it. Then, I got each student to design their very own Easter egg to go in
the Easter basket aka on the poster board. They did a great job. Special thanks to Instagram for the inspiration!
