Работа со стихотворением (Слайд №2)

Through the sunshine
Through the shadow
Down the hills
Down the meadows
Little streams
Run bright and merry
Bursting with the news, they carry
Singing, shouting, laughing, humming,
Easter is coming!
Easter is coming!

Teacher: What Easter symbols do you know? (Слайд №3-4)

Do you know why rabbits became Easter symbols? (Работа с текстом на розданных до урока листочках).

Long ago in Germany there lived an old loving woman who liked children. Each year she gave them gifts to celebrate spring. One year she had nothing to give because it was a bad year and she had become very poor. All she had were some eggs. She didn't want to disappoint the children, so quickly before they arrived for their gifts, she coloured the eggs and hid them in the grass.

When the children arrived, she told them to run out into the lawn to find their gifts hiding there. Of course the children ran into the yard in search their surprises. Just as one of the children uncovered the eggs, a large rabbit hopped away. So the children thought that the rabbit had left the eggs for them. And ever since children have searched for the eggs left by the Easter rabbit on Easter morning. It is called the Easter Egg Hunt.

It is also true that in ancient Egypt the rabbit symbolized the moon. It also symbolized new life and birth. Because Easter's date is determined by the moon and Easter occurs in the spring time, it was natural that the rabbit continued to be one of the Easter symbols
