Leader Guide
Class Project
- Scissors for the children
- Large Superbook Device Craft
- Optional: "Old Testament Books" Sheet Music
Make a copy of each of the 21 pages for the Large Superbook Device Craft.
You may wish to cut out the Large Superbook Device and separate the various books of the Old Testament for the children to cut out and assemble individually.
Pass out parts of the patterns to the children to cut out and assemble as a class project. Show them how to fold each piece to cut out the center, then attach it to the Superbook Device as shown. Be sure the books of the Old Testament are put in order under the Superbook device. Display it in the classroom for the next two lessons to help the children learn the books of the Old Testament.
As the children work, you may wish to sing the "Old Testament Books Song" to help them learn the names of the books. The sheet music is available in the "Get Ready" section of this activity.
If your group does not have time to finish this class project today, you may have them continue to work on it in the next two lessons. You may do this in the same way that the children make their Small Superbook Device crafts: adding the books of Wisdom and Major Prophets in Lesson 2 and the books of the Minor Prophets in Lesson 3.
