Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
The White House Easter Egg Roll is hosted by the US President on Easter Monday and has been a tradition since the 1870's. In this class, we will learn how the Easter Egg Roll tradition began and how it has changed over the years. Through the use of Google slides and photos, we will discuss the activities that take place and who gets to attend this event.  Learners will have a chance to be creative and draw a design for a decorative egg or poster that commemorates the Easter Egg Roll. A trivia review game will be played at the end of the class. Together, let's learn about how the past has shaped the present. No prior knowledge is required for this class.
