Zacchaeus (Luke 19) | Games

 

For this lesson I have 2 play posts. one is a specially modified game of eye spy. This one is the more usual collection of games. The games link with the themes; Vision, hiding, and sharing

 

Hide and seek – Traditionally it’s one of those games everyone knows, and if you have the space it’s great to play. I’d make sure you have a signal to say the game has ended. It ties in to the idea of Zacchaeus being hidden in the tree.
 

Boxed Limited view – you need a few cardboard boxes for this one. Punch a few small holes in the sides and then place a mystery object in the box. By shaking and peering through the holes the child has to identify the object.

Da li ste se ikada našli u nevolji?

Današnja priča vezana je za Pavla. Pitam se da li ti išta znaš vezano za Pavla. On je bio veliki učitelj u ranoj crkvi, napisao je gomilu reči u našoj bibliji i poogao je da poruka o Hrišćanstvu bude ispričana celom svetu. Pavle je bio veoma dobar u nailaženju na nevolje.

Pavle je sreo Isusa dok je putovao u Damask, on je trebalo je da uhapsi Hrišćane tamo, ali je on rešio da im se pridruži. Uskoro, ljudi koji su ga poslali u Damask otkrili su to i rešili da pošalju ljude da uhapse Pavla. Kada je čovek došao u grad Pavle je bio zarobljen. “Prati me”, rekao je jedan od Hrišćana i vodio je Pavla do kuće koja se nalazila uz zidine grada. Onda je postavio Pavla u veliku korpu, vezao dugačak kanap oko korpe i ispustio polako Pavla kroz prozor. Pavle je pobegao, ali je znao da Bog želi od njega da nastavi da govori ljudima o Isusu, pa je nastavio da radi to.

Language update!

 

You may notice the life of Paul lesson has a few changes…

I’m starting to put up Serbian translation for the lessons themselves this week.
 

Each page will be translated by having a mirror post that you can get to by clicking on the Serbian flag icon, with the exception of the full lesson page where you’ll see both languages. Some of the worksheets and take home cards already have translation, but not the icon, be patient with me it will come.

If you speak a different language and would like me to put up your native tongue then I’m happy to remake resources and put up new pages as soon as I can get hold of the translated text.
 

The site organisation will remain in English, as it’s the most universal.

————————————–
NB: This post will only appear on the feed and newest resources page, not in any category.

mistaken learning methodology

 
“Research has shown that we learn more about things for which we initially make incorrect predictions than for things for which our initial predictions are correct. The element of surprise in discovering we are wrong is conducive to learning.”

Most of us will nod our hear when we read the above, and yet we often teach as though it isn’t true. We expect crafts to look just like the photograph with the instructions, even though it was put together by a 6 year old. We give a child a bible and 10 minutes to find 2 passages in a minor prophet and then wonder why they haven’t found the first one when we go check on them.

We expect a child’s satisfaction with the lesson to be linked to our goals and expectations… IT’S NOT.

Again, remember, there are a few ‘Mary’s Perfume’ linked make posts. The craft you chose will probably probably depend as much on the make-up of your group as the resources you can find.

If you are working with the lesson card then this one ties into the symbol of a crown.

I’ve included some crown designs, but you can easily draw your own. They can be found in pdf form here.
