Teach English on Easter: Primary School Lesson Plans

Holidays are excellent opportunities to get primary school students excited about learning English. So for Easter, I put together a lesson plan that includes English songs, dances, and videos I found on YouTube.

As an auxiliar de conversación, I teach the English language to first, second, and third grade primary school students in Spain. But part of the job is also teaching about the culture of one’s home country. So whenever a holiday comes up, I use the opportunity to share a bit about how I celebrated the holiday in the United States growing up.

For Easter, I found several English songs, English dances, and other English videos online to share with my students. My lesson plan also includes some questions about the holiday and a description of some popular Easter traditions.

I hope you and your students enjoy these English teaching resources for Easter!

English Songs:

Easter Song for Kids - This song may help you teach basic Easter vocabulary in English. It also describes some Easter traditions in English.

This is the Way the Bunny Hops - Here’s a simple English song that’s great for teaching about Easter to primary school English language learners.

English Dances:

The Easter Bunny Dance for Kids - This English dance is a fun way to get your primary school students engaged and moving on Easter.

The Easter Bunny Dance - Freeze Dance - This English dance is a bit longer, but it’s a great English listening activity, because students must listen to the instructions to learn the movements. Then there’s a fun freeze dance part at the end!

The Bunny Hokey Pokey - This one is probably self-explanatory, but it’s the hokey pokey modified to use a rabbit’s parts of the body! This English song is great if your students are learning about animals and their body parts.

English Videos:

Decorating Easter Eggs - This simple and short video is a fun way to teach kids about decorating eggs in English.

Going on an Egg Hunt - This video includes an animated cartoon and narration that describes kids going on an Easter egg hunt.
