Easter Story Primary Assembly or Lesson PowerPoint (updated for 2024): Also available as part of a bundle with accompanying sequencing images here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12823732 Please note, the preview images only show a selection of slides, as an example. I have created this 16-slide PowerPoint for my Easter assembly as I couldn’t find anything else that included all of the elements I wanted to cover. This is suitable for a whole school primary assembly but is a little longer than normal, so could be done in sections (the story one day and the celebration parts another) or as an extended assembly. I anticipate this taking me 20-25 minutes to deliver. It is also easily shortened by removing some of the slides to suit your needs. This presentation includes: • When is Easter? • Why is it celebrated? • The Easter Story • Summary of key messages • How is Easter celebrated in the UK? • Easter around the World • Reflection Please visit my shop to see my other resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/numbersense
