Bible reading: Matthew 27:27-66, 28
Warm up / welcome game:
We played a helping puzzle game, each sharing pieces to help everyone solve their jigsaw puzzles.
Memory verse:
Our memory verse for this unit of work about the Life of Jesus is "Jesus will come back" an abbreviation of Acts 1:11.
Telling the story:
We used pictures to recap what we've already learned about Jesus (his birth, his baptism, riding into Jerusalem on the donkey, etc.) Then we talked about the people who did not like Jesus and who decided to kill him. We talked about how sad Jesus' friends were when he died and how amazed Mary was when she mistook him for the gardener near his tomb - Jesus is alive again!
Craft time:
We made a picture of the tomb in the garden. (I found the template on the internet but did not note the reference - if it's yours let me know and I'll link directly to it.)
