Hello, good fellows!
Hello, beautiful girls!
Drops are dripping loudly
Near our window.
The birds sang merrily
Easter has come to visit us.
- Guys, today in class we will talk about the greatest holiday that is celebrated in Rus' - the holiday of Holy Easter. This holiday is popularly called the holiday of holidays, a celebration of celebrations.
– Easter is always celebrated on Sunday. We talked a lot about this holiday and learned a lot of interesting things. Yesterday you and your parents, brothers, sisters celebrated this wonderful holiday - the holiday of Holy Easter. Some of you have probably been to church. Tell me, children, what event served to establish this holiday in the Christian religion?
Children(answer) Jesus Christ was resurrected (revived) after he was crucified on the cross.
Educator.

Educator. On this day, the church remembers the suffering and death of Jesus Christ on the cross, and teaches Christian forgiveness, because Jesus Christ loved all people and forgave them all evil. Even when he was nailed to the cross, he prayed for his enemies and said: “Our Father! Forgive them, they don’t know what they are doing.”
The holiday of Holy Easter is famous for various treats that you will not find on any holiday table throughout the year. Tell me, children, what dishes are prepared once a year, just for the Easter table?
Children.(answer) Easter cakes, Easter eggs, painted eggs.
Educator. How do you decorate your house?
Children.(answer) They light candles, turn on lamps, chandeliers, lamps, and put willow branches in vases.
Educator. Yes, the willow is planted a week before Easter, on Palm Sunday. Guys, who can tell me why willow is used to decorate the house?
Children.(answer) Willow in Russia is considered the first flowering shrub.
Educator. It has long been believed that three flowering willow branches are enough to drive away all evil spirits from the house. And golden fluffy willow earrings contain healing power. Grandmothers kneaded them in their palms, applied them to their faces and said: “Get off, wrinkles, smooth out, skin.” They tied a crushed willow twig with a scarf to their forehead and whispered: “Calm down, headache!” Willow bark was dried, crushed into powder, and it became a healing medicine. The patient was given palm powder to inhale, and his runny nose disappeared.
The holiday of Holy Easter is rich rituals. On this day, old people combed their hair with wishes that they would have as many grandchildren as there were hairs on their heads, washed themselves with gold, silver and red eggs in the hope of getting rich, and young people climbed onto the roofs to better see how the red sun would play and have fun. All the people went to church. The Easter service was going on all night on the eve of Holy Easter. When during the Easter service the holy words “Christ is Risen” were heard. Truly rise again,” the young girls wished for the future: “Send, God, a good groom, neither young nor old, but equal.”
1 hour (2)
Musical director. We will listen to church hymns with you. In the Orthodox Church, the sound of musical instruments is not allowed, so the music was written for the choir. This is spiritual music, its author is Russian composer Dmitry Bortnyansky. Listen to how beautiful the most amazing, most perfect musical instrument is - the human voice.
A fragment of the concert for two choirs “We Praise You God” by D. Bortnyansky (gr-s) (1.Allegromalstoso) sounds.
Musical director. On this day, on the day of Holy Easter, bells ring in all churches and cathedrals after the end of the Easter service. Listen to the poem that Russian poet Sergei Yesenin wrote about the ringing of bells.
The dozing bell woke me up.
The sleepy earth smiled at the sun.
The blows flew towards the blue skies,
A voice rings loudly through the forests.
The white moon disappeared behind the river,
A frisky wave ran loudly.
The quiet valley will drive away sleep,
Somewhere along the road the ringing fades away.
Let's listen to the bell ringing, children.
Musical director. On Easter Sunday the bells ring in a special, solemn way. This ringing is called the Easter bell. Let's repeat.
Children repeat together with the music director.
Child.
Everywhere the gospel is buzzing,
People are pouring out of all the churches.
The dawn is already looking from the sky,
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

The earth is waking up
And the fields are getting dressed.
Spring is coming, full of miracles,
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

Educator. I want to test your skill in painting Easter eggs.
According to custom, Easter eggs were painted on Good Friday, the day before Easter.
It has long been believed that an egg is a symbol of new life, pure, bright, a symbol of hope. Once upon a time in ancient times there was the following legend: “In the beginning the human race was enclosed in an egg. He was an ungerminated seed, an unopened bud. But the imprisonment came to an end. Rod gave birth to mother Lada. Rod destroyed the prison with the power of love. Then the world was filled with love.
Eggs were most often colored with onion peels! It was believed that an egg painted in this way acquired healing powers and helped against all sorts of diseases and the evil eye. For small children, when they slept poorly, they rolled a testicle on the top of their heads, and the child’s night fears disappeared.
Let's repeat the symbols with which Easter eggs were painted.
Pine - longevity and health.
The star is moral purity, philanthropy.
Oak leaf - harmony.
The sun is for the harvest.
Russian folk songs are played. Children paint eggs with watercolors or felt-tip pens.
(The teacher observes the children’s work, helps those children who do not succeed, and praises them for successful work.)
Educator. In front of you on the table in your bags are real painted Easter eggs that you brought from home. What are they popularly called?
Children(answer) Krashenki.
Educator. Take the paints out of your bags, take them in your hands, and hang the bags on your shoulder. Now we will play games with paints. Leave your tables!

On command, the children simultaneously spin their paints. Whose egg spins the longest is the winner, he takes the loser's egg.
Game No. 2 is played (the third and fourth pairs participate alternately)
The players roll the paints so that they collide. Whose egg breaks, he gives it to his opponent.

Guys, look, in front of you lies a blank egg-dye, gouache paints and cotton swabs. With the help of cotton swabs we can draw not only dots, but also straight and wavy lines. First we dip a cotton swab in water, then in paint and begin to draw our pattern. Guys, for each color we take a new stick, we don’t mix paints. You can draw spring forget-me-not flowers - a yellow dot in the center, and blue or blue dots around it. And so we turn our painted eggs into Easter eggs! Imagine! Background music.

Children: Easter cakes are baked
Educator: Do you want to know how this holiday is celebrated?
On this day, people visited each other and exchanged eggs and pastries. Eggs are painted in different colors and given to each other.
Educator: “Let’s try to give you an Easter egg.”
The teacher chooses two people who want to, gives one of them an egg - a pysanka and invites the children to say hello according to the Easter custom. (Eggs need to be tapped with your nose).
The teacher shows the children colored eggs: “How are these eggs different?”
Children's answers.
Educator: “That's right, guys. One egg is painted one color, and on the other we see a pattern.
Eggs painted with paint are called “krashenki”, and eggs painted with subtle patterns are called “pysanky”. When an artist draws, they say that he is painting a picture or a pattern.
Now let’s find out what Easter cakes are. Kulich symbolizes the red sun, and if a person tries Kulich, he absorbs the life-giving rays and becomes kind and strong.
Easter always fell in the spring and people watched the weather, this is how folk signs developed: Look outside, is there still snow?
Educator: “A folk sign tells us: “If all the snow has already melted by Easter, then the year will be fruitful. And if there is still snow, then the year will be poor.”
Educator: “Now look, is it raining or is the sun shining?”
Educator: “There is another sign: if the weather is clear and sunny on Easter Sunday, then the summer will be hot but dry. If the “mushroom rain” passes, the summer will be warm but rainy. And if it is cloudy but without rain, then the summer will be cold but dry.
Educator: “The ritual of “letting the birds go free” has long existed.
Let us imagine that we have birds in our hands and we are releasing them.
Educator: “So you and I released our birds into the wild, so that spring would come quickly, so that the snow would melt, so that the flowers would bloom.
Easter is one of the most beloved family holidays all over the world.
Preparations for Easter begin with cleaning the house; many people collect things for the poor and give them to those who need it. After all, Easter is a holiday of mercy and compassion, and each of us can show these qualities by helping our neighbor. And this, you see, is pleasant and not at all difficult.
On Easter, you, too, together with your parents, can put together things you’ve outgrown and toys you don’t play with, and give them to younger children.
On Thursday and Friday, housewives bake Easter cakes, and children decorate them with icing and sprinkle with colorful sugar stars and peas.
The Easter holiday has always been accompanied by folk games and entertainment.

Everywhere the gospel is buzzing,
People are pouring out of all the churches.
The dawn is already looking from the sky...
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
(bells ringing)
Guys, who knows what kind of Easter holiday this is?
(the teacher listens to the children’s answers and marks the correct ones)
Easter has its roots in the distant past.
Easter is the holiday of the bright Sunday of Christ, which is celebrated with joy and triumph. On Easter, everyone goes to visit each other, says Christ, congratulates them on the holiday, wishes the owners happiness and prosperity, and gifts each other with colored eggs and Easter cakes.
In ancient times, people walked from house to house, stopping in front of the windows and singing songs. The songs included Easter greetings, spells for the future harvest, livestock offspring, and demands for gifts: eggs, pies, etc. And the owners tried to please the volcanoes in any way they could. They were afraid not to give them gifts, since terrible words could be spoken to the stingy owner:
Whoever does not give us eggs will kill the sheep,
If a piece of lard does not give us, the heifer will die.
During Lent, all kinds of games and amusements were prohibited, and from Easter, fun festivities began with games, round dances, and round dance songs. Celebrations were held in the fresh air. It was from Easter that people began to swing on swings and carousels.
Physical education lesson “Carousel”
Barely-barely-barely
The carousel is spinning (the children begin to move slowly)
And then, then, then
Everything is running, running, running (the pace of speech and movement accelerates)
Let's run, let's run,
Let's run, let's run,
Hush, hush, don't rush (the pace slows down)
Carousel os-ta-no-vi-te. (everyone stopped)
One-two, one-two,
So the game is over (everyone bows to each other).
What else do we do for Easter? That's right, on the bright holiday of Easter they painted eggs.
Did you know that eggs painted in one color were called “colored”; if the general color indicated spots, stripes, specks of a different color - it was a “speckle”. There were also “pysanky” - eggs hand-painted with plot pictures or ornamental patterns. (demonstration of pictures with painted eggs).
Special symbols were used for Easter eggs: cockscombs protected against evil forces, the sun for a good harvest, stars for a pure soul and kindness. And for the pattern to be beautiful and even, you need to work carefully.
And now I suggest you go to your tables, on which images of eggs are prepared for you. Each of you can decorate your egg the way you like best.
After the work is completed, the “pysanky” are displayed on the board. Children look at each other's work, telling what they liked best.
Educator: What holiday did we talk about today? What new did you learn? What did you like? Guys, you all worked really hard today! Well done! Let's traditionally give each other our “colors” so that next year will be good and fruitful.
