Write a Rap—Part 2
- Paper and pencil
- Ten Commandments Poster from Lesson 1
- Ten Commandments Minibooks from Connect section
Today, we are going to work on creating a rap song about the six commandments on loving others.
If you did this activity in Lesson 1 for the first four commandments, ask children if they can share with the class their raps from that lesson. Challenge the children to have fun creating a rap song with lyrics about the last six commandments, about loving others, or about Moses and the Israelites. They may use the Ten Commandments Minibooks or Poster for a reference. Allow children to work with partners or in small groups. End the lesson with the rap performances.
Sample from Lesson 1:
God said: DO show Me much love.
Don’t—put any idols above Me.
DO—speak My name with respect.
The Sabbath is a day I made to be kept.
