| Title | Easter Activities and Poem for German Class |
| Body | An AATG listserv user, Ann Schroeder, recently shared the following series of activities and accompanying resources: I have a list of matching (G-E) that I passed out and the first 3 to get them all correct got a "delectable treat" (candy). Then we used those words to play Bingo -- I used print-bingo.com to make cards. Everything is German - English. I just want them to recognize the words. The hook: The list, while mostly full of words like "cross, resurrection, egg, and Easter nest," also includes terms like "glue" and "broken off" -- they really wanted to know what those words have to do with Easter. I tell them, you have to wait 'til we read the poem I have planned." More delectable treats for bingo winners. (To keep them intrigued, I kept asking every time one of the weird words came up, "Now what DOES that have to do with Easter?" -- Hey, silly, but it worked!) After a few rounds of Bingo and hearing the vocab, kids should be pretty familiar with the words. Finally, we move on -- to the poem. In level two I had cut out sections (divided by me) and had them put them in order, but in level 1 we just read the poem together, which worked just fine. I had them read each sentence aloud in English. It's a cute little poem. All materials (the matching, the bingo, and the poem) can be found on my website: http://frauschroeder.pbwiki.com/For-German-Teachers . Scroll down to EASTER ACTIVITY. Schroeder, A.
