Easter and Spring - BROWN OWL'S BUNDLE OF ACTIVITIES

How many Easter/spring words can you think of?I like to teach dictionary skills with this activity. The children have lots of ideas in their mother tongue but don't nececcarily know the English. equivalent. My favourite online dictionary is www.pons.deI let the children work in teams with iPads or PCs and see how many words they can find in a given time.Why not give points too! If no else has the word, you get 2 points, if someone else has it, then you get just one.You can also use the Brown Owl busy Easter scene to give them some ideas.Have fun learning English with Brown Owl!
