SuperVerse

Whiteboard and marker or chalkboard and chalk
Eraser
Bibles or the Superbook Bible App

Near the top of the board, write the SuperVerse jumbled and in all capital letters: “WHO TO ANYONE WISE IS TEACHING AND BUILDS MY ROCK IT LIKE A HOUSE LISTENS WHO FOLLOWS ON A SOLID PERSON.” If you did not leave the SuperVerse on the board from the teaching, write it correctly at the bottom of the board. Matthew 7:24:

“Anyone who listens to My teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.”

Superbook Builders: Memorize the SuperVerse with a group activity.

Point to the correct verse near the bottom of the board. Let’s say today’s SuperVerse, Matthew 7:24:

“Anyone who listens to My teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.”

Erase the correct verse at the bottom of the board. Let’s read the SuperVerse together one more time. Point to the top of the board and have everyone read aloud the jumbled verse: “WHO TO ANYONE WISE IS TEACHING AND BUILDS MY ROCK IT LIKE A HOUSE LISTENS WHO FOLLOWS ON A SOLID PERSON.”

That doesn’t sound right. Was this verse built correctly? No!

I agree; whoever built the verse this way doesn’t seem very wise, or maybe the person just wanted to see if we were awake! I think we need to build it the right way. Let’s do that now. Can you help me?

Ask one child at a time to choose the correct word from the jumbled verse to write on the board in the right order, from the first word to the last. Erase the jumbled words as they are chosen. Proceed this way until the verse is built correctly, and all of the words near the top of the board are erased. Read the correct verse together.

That sounds more like Jesus’ words, doesn’t it? I think you are all wise builders!
