Happy Easter! Enjoy the holiday 🙂 See you in two weeks.

Homework (HW):   None

Easter activities:

-Quiz game: https://www.baamboozle.com/game/973326

-„Easter Hunt“ and „Chocolate Bunny“ stories. Students created their own silly stories by first writing words based on prompts (parts of speech, e.g., adjective, noun, verb) without looking at the story and then filling in the story’s gaps. „Easter Hunt“ is below!

-„WANTED: The Easter Bunny is wanted for stealing eggs.“ Students created their own „Wanted“ poster by writing a description of the Easter Bunny. (What colour is his fur? How tall is he? How much does he weigh? Where was he last seen? etc.)
