It’s coming up to Easter again, so for speaking be sure to teach the Genki English  Easter Egg Hunt – the kids love the ending of the song  – plus of course the picture book!

Ninja Tip:  On the software, you get the picture books when there is a picture icon on the top menu e.g. here it is the mini Easter Egg picture.  Lots of other themes have them too so do keep an eye out for them! 🙂 

Super Fun Speaking Games

And as with all your Genki English lessons you have nice selection of speaking games depending on whether you have big classes, small classes, no-prep or if you quite enjoy making things we’ve got more complex games too:   Chocolate Monster (my favourite game!) , broken eggs game, Easter propositions game and more.

Ninja Tip:  Usually the first “recommended game” on a lesson plan is a “no prep” one that you can do with no preparation at all.  These are what I usually recommend for most teachers especially on their first time through the curriculum.   Then the other recommended games are if you have a little more time to prepare and want something a little more exotic!

Easter Crafts

Plus if you have many hours to spend on Easter  there are more arts and crafts on the  Genki English Easter Pinterest page – it’s got lots of great stuff!

Ninja Tip:  In general it’s one hour, or one 45 minute lesson, per Genki English theme, that’s the most efficient use of time to get great results where you only have 1 or 2 hours per week.  I wouldn’t normally recommend arts and crafts for these lessons for time reasons.  However if you have several hours per day, like say in a kindergarten, then adding in the crafts is an excellent way to add in more natural language as you have the time!

A few more ideas to check out:

• Happy Bunnies Game
• Easter Spot the Difference
• Imagination Worksheets with the Easter Egg

Ninja Tip:  The imagination worksheets are one fantastic way to cure the “dread of the blank page” in advanced writing courses.   And for most of us, of course, it’s always speaking first with the regular Genki English lessons and curriculum!

I think you’re going to have a great time with all the Easter Ideas, the Easter Egg Hunt is a fantastic lesson! 🙂

Have a very Genki Easter!
