3–Pre-K— Match Letter Shapes

Bible Story: Peter Preached About Jesus Acts 2
Life Point: People can learn that Jesus is God’s Son.
Weekly Verse: Jesus is the Son of God. John 20:31

Materials: Teaching Picture 9, magnetic letters, paper, fine-tip marker, magnet board or cookie sheet

  • Trace the letters J, E, S, U, S and L, E, A, R N on paper. Lay the paper on the magnet board. You may want to tape the paper to the board to keep it in place. (Other options: Arrange the letters on a piece of paper and take a photograph. Print the photograph to tape to the magnet board. Or place the letters facedown on a copier and make a photocopy to tape to the magnet board.)
  • Invite a child to match the magnetic letters to their outlines on the magnet board.
  • Read the words and talk about the Bible story. Show the Teaching Picture and point to Peter telling the people about Jesus.

Kindergarten— Learn Words in Other Languages

Bible Story: Peter Preached About Jesus Acts 2
Life Point: People can learn that Jesus is God’s Son.
Weekly Verse: Jesus is the Son of God. John 20:31

Materials: Teaching Picture 9, index cards, pen or marker, electronic tablet (optional)

  • Print the words Jesus, Bible, and baptize onto separate cards. If you do not have or cannot use a tablet, look up these words online and print them in Spanish, German, French, and Japanese. If you are using a tablet, you can use a translation program (such as Google) to pronounce the words in each language. Also consider finding the words in sign language.
  • Show the Teaching Picture and tell the Bible story as kids show interest in the activity. Comment that when the disciples started talking, every person heard in their own language.
  • Show the English words printed and help kids read each one. Talk about how each word relates to the Bible story.
  • Help kids research how to say the different words in each language. Comment that missionaries often have to learn other languages before they move to their new place.
  • Pray, thanking God that people everywhere can learn that Jesus is God’s Son.
