Holiday: Easter {Informational Writing}

by Eva, 5th grade

Easter is a famous holiday. It’s celebrated between the end of March and the beginning of April. This  year it was on April Fools day too. This holiday is celebrated in many countries, cities and villages. It is a Christian holiday.

When Jesus 26-36 years old he was crucified. After the people put Jesus’s body in a tomb. After 3 days Jesus resurrected. The people went to see Jesus but Jesus wasn’t in the tomb. Then an angel came to tell the people Jesus is resurrected. But someone thought they’re lying because they saw how Jesus died. But then Jesus came to them and then they believed in Jesus.

At this holiday people in the UK and other countries bake hot cross buns. It’s a little cake with a cross in the middle. Hot cross buns have a song and in this song the kids sing about how much money they have to buy hot cross buns with, but the kids in the song are baking hot cross buns together. In real life in Hungary at Easter boys go to girls’ houses to water the girls with perfume. The girls give Easter eggs or chocolate to the boys, but sometimes the boys get money. Before Easter people make or buy decorations. Then people drink grape juice and eat wafers or bread, boiled eggs and horse-radish.
