A one off lesson (could be stretched into two or three depending on your group or how you adapt it) based around describing the perfect Easter Egg through the five senses. This is more suited for Key Stage 3 but can be easily adapted. Resources include a core ppt, an adapted version for lower ability classes, example descriptions and planning sheets (within ppt). Recommendations: For Key Stage 4, this could be adapted to suit transactional writing with a greater focus on letter writing. I have also run this as a competition in form time to win an Easter Egg which proved to be very popular!

A Christmas quiz I originally used for a family quiz night but can easily be adapted and used for school (I’ll be doing so this year!). Consists of: Picture Round - Christmas Dingbats (My students did great with these but my adult family members struggled - use your judgement for this one!) *** Round 1** - Christmas Trivia Round 2 - Elf Identity Parade Round 3 - General Knowledge 2022** (this is 2022 specific but can be changed/adapted easily enough!)** **Comedy Interlude ** *** Round 4** - Complete the Christmas Lyrics *** Round 5** - Intros Round: Christmas Number Ones (some of these will need changing for younger participants! Maybe just use the Christmas ones?) *** Round 6 - Christmas Around the World* (Merry Christmas in 12 different languages; what language is it?)* All videos are embedded and links included if needed. Answers are also at the end with animations. Check the ‘Notes’ section of each slide for comments/ideas on acceptable answers, what is worth a half point, etc. A choice of tie breakers also added at the end.

Three rounds taken from an old family lockdown quiz that have worked quite well in house/form sessions! Round 1: Identify ‘Easter Eggs’ in Disney films. Round 2: Who said it? Bugs Bunny or Trump? Round 3: Identify the chocolate from the Easter Egg Answers and timers all included in the slides. Can be adapted by adding in a general knowledge round relative to whatever year you’re doing it!
