Easter Around the World - Research Activities
Do you want to broaden your pupils’ knowledge of the world while working on their research skills?
This resource is really easy to use in your classroom – there are 16 printable worksheets which cover 15 countries and include a blank sheet if there is a specific country you would like included that is not in the selection.
Pupils can then undertake their own research (at home or in class) to find out more about the Easter traditions in these countries.
Pupils are asked to
• find out what Easter is called in the country
• draw and colour the country’s flag
• write how Easter is celebrated in the country
• add a picture (drawn or printed) to illustrate how Easter in celebrated there
The countries included are:
• Bermuda
• Brazil
• Bulgaria
• France
• Germany
• Greece
• Hungary
• Indonesia
• Italy
• the Netherlands
• Norway
• Poland
• Scotland
• Spain
• Sweden
This is great way for pupils to research other cultures. All the countries have been chosen as they have a special way to celebrate Easter - my favourite is Bermuda with their kites!
On completion, pupils could present their findings to the class or they could be displayed for the whole school to see.
Pupils would also love to be shown YouTube clips of these celebrations and could even try to recreate some of them… I’d love to hear if any classes make their own kites!

- To practise speaking, use either PowerPoint and pupils say the phrase aloud in Spanish (either reading directly or translating it into Spanish in their heads and then saying it aloud).
