Statement of Faith:

I believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. I believe that Jesus is fully God and fully human, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and paid the penalty for our sins through his death on the cross, resurrected on the third day having victory over death. I believe in the trinity, that God is existent in 3 separate persons - God the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit. I believe, as Calvary Chapel states, “that all people are by nature separated from God and responsible for their own sin, but that salvation, redemption, and forgiveness are freely offered to all by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit, all his/her sins are forgiven, and that person becomes a child of God, destined to spend eternity with the Lord.” If you’d like to read more, you can click HERE.

What is Earth Day?

Earth Day is an annual event celebrated worldwide to demonstrate support for environmental protection. It serves as a reminder of our responsibility to safeguard our planet for future generations.

Why do we celebrate Earth Day?

Earth Day is celebrated to raise awareness about environmental issues such as pollution, deforestation, climate change, and endangered species. It encourages individuals, communities, and governments to take action to preserve and protect the Earth’s natural resources.

Why is Earth Day important?

Earth Day is crucial because it brings people together to advocate for sustainable practices and policies. By promoting environmental awareness and activism, Earth Day plays a vital role in inspiring positive change and fostering a deeper connection between humanity and the planet.

This 90-minute lesson plan will help you teach your A1-A2 students basic facts about Earth Day in a very communicative way. The video 'What Is Earth Day?' is used throughout. There are many activities designed especially for levels A1-A2, and the answers are provided at the end.

This 90-minute lesson introduces students to World Red Cross Day, celebrated every year on May 8th. Using the educational video World Red Cross Day, students explore the history, principles, and global impact of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.

Students then engage with a printable worksheet featuring vocabulary activities, comprehension questions, critical thinking prompts, and a creative drawing task where they design a badge or slogan based on Red Cross values. Through collaborative pair work and whole-class discussion, students deepen their understanding of core humanitarian principles such as neutrality, impartiality, and voluntary service. A final quiz section reinforces key facts and encourages reflection on the importance of helping others in times of crisis.

This lesson not only builds language and listening skills but also promotes empathy, civic responsibility, and global awareness. It’s ideal for upper elementary or middle school learners and easily adaptable across different classroom settings. Answer keys are included, and the worksheet can be printed or used digitally for blended learning environments.

The main Christian holiday, Easter, commemorates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day following his crucifixion. Although the commemoration of Jesus' Resurrection most likely took place earlier, the first known Easter celebration dates to the second century.

Holy Week, which encompasses Good Friday, the day of Jesus' crucifixion; Maundy Thursday, the celebration of his Last Supper with his followers; and Holy Saturday, the period between his crucifixion and resurrection, comes right before Easter.
