ESL Easter Activities

There are a number of ESL Easter activities and topics you can do with your class. In this article I describe ideas for both children and adults. To begin with some traditional Easter activities for young learners, followed by other ideas. An Easter trivia quiz may be interesting. Actually, you can use this kind of activity on any holiday.

ESL Easter Activities for Children

Easter Picture Dictation - Choose a colorful Easter picture - such as the one of the Easter bunny and eggs on this page. Or draw your own. Each student will need paper and a pencil. Crayons too, if you intend them to color the picture after.

There are two basic methods. First you could describe the picture, and each student listens and draws it. The second way is to give each pair of students a picture (a black and white photocopied sketch would work). Then one student describes, while the other draws, and asks questions.
