Hi Godly Play Teachers!
Welcome to our lesson for August 10,
Creation, taken from Genesis 1:1-2:3, and also found in The Complete
Guide to Godly Play, Vol2, the orange book, 14 Presentations for Fall.
What a wonderful story about gift giving
and creating. As it says in the Godly Play book, you can tell much
about the giver by looking at the gift, and what an incredible gift
creation is!
Be sure to ask the wondering questions. They're simple but they invite deep thinking!
1. I wonder which one of these days you like best.
2. I wonder which day is most important.
3. I wonder which day you are in or which one is especially about you.
4. I wonder if we can leave out any one of these days and still have all the days we need.
Classes at FBCGreenville might want to
take a mini-field trip down the hall and take a look at our world
created in tiles a few years ago during Sunday school.
What can they find on the tiles that shows God's creation?
For our Make a Gift for God time, here are some ideas to get the children started:
1. Choose a day (or assign a day) and
invite the children to create and illustrate their own plaque or water
color drawing- or clay sculpture or pencil drawing depicting that
particular day. This could be done as a class mural or completed
individually.
Here's an example in which children did water colors and then put them together.
Check out dozens of more ideas at the Pinterest site here.
Thank you for all you do for our children!
