Easter is almost here!
And in Ms. Jerica’s class that means we take a journey with Jesus, doing activities that focus on His last week on Earth (the first time 😄), and learning how He gave His life for us!
The week before Resurrection Sunday, aka Easter Sunday, I take one story a day and do activities that go along with the story.
I also summarize the main point of the story into a short phrase using words the kiddos already have some understanding of to make the story more relatable to them!
I find this way leads to way more retention than trying to do a whole memory verse at this age, because even if they can memorize the whole verse, they may not understand what they are repeating back to you.
I take a Bible story coloring page of the story and add this “repeatable phrase,” along with the Bible verses it’s based on, to the coloring page so they can take the picture home, talk about it with parents, and commit it to memory!
These coloring pages with phrases and verses are available for free download on each post!
Click on the pictures below to follow us on our journey!
p.s. – I just found a bunch of videos of past classes, so even if you don’t want to do the activities there will be super cute videos of my friends to see 😄😍
Day 1 phrase: Hosanna! Praise Jesus!
Day 2 phrase: Jesus loves to help His friends!
Day 3 phrase: When you eat, and when you drink, remember Jesus!
Day 4 phrase: Jesus says I’m worth it all!
Happy Easter!!!! – Bunnies and eggs to come 😉
