Easter Trivia (A triangle puzzle)

When students match the sentence fragments printed on the edges of the triangles, they will reconstitute the 25 Easter facts and “sculpt” the Easter Bunny’s head.

Although designed as a co-operative activity, the EASTER TRIANGLE puzzle also works well as an enrichment task for individual students.

Here are 7 of the 25 Easter facts embedded in this puzzle:

• Monks made the first pretzels for Lent. They shaped them like arms crossed in prayer!

• A baby rabbit is a “kitten” or a “kit”.

• This is a moai: (image) a giant Easter Island sculpture.

• The Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny are imaginary characters.

• In the movie, HOP, the Easter Bunny’s son wants to leave the family business to drum in a rock band.

• North Americans eat 90 million chocolate bunnies every year!

• A Ukrainian Easter egg decorated with intricate traditional folk designs is called a “pysanka”.
