Sermon on the Mount
Matthew 5-7
What this is: I wanted a way to teach the Sermon on the Mount to younger kids, and this is what we tried last year. You read the script and pass out an item and a verse for each section for the kids to add to their bags (we just used paper bags). This helps keep the kids focused even though it's a lot of text, and hopefully some of the concepts will stick.
Directions: download pdfs below; make 1 copy of the script for yourself (first file) and however many copies of the verse slips as you need (count how many are on each page and decide how many you need for your group) (I recommend copying the verses onto colored paper, using a different color for each verse, if you can); cut apart the verses and gather the items listed on the script; follow the directions on the script to teach the lesson
Supplies: paper, paper bags, various items listed on the script
Notes:you can use different items than what I have on the script, of course, or skip the items and just do the verses, but with younger kids, using the items really helps reinforce the verses
