Take-Home Coloring Page

  • Just Help-INN Out Take-Home Coloring Page
  • Crayons or washable markers

The Take-Home Coloring Page located in Resources can be printed and given to students to color at the end of class if time allows, then to take home.

Print one page for each child, plus extras.

Provide crayons or washable markers for children.

As children color, review today’s lesson using the discussion points below:

● Who is in this picture you are coloring? Good Samaritan, innkeeper, injured (Jewish) man.

● What is a story like the one Jesus told called? A parable.

● Do you remember what city the man was traveling to? Jericho.

● Who were the men that did not stop to help the injured man? The priest and temple assistant.

● Why was it especially surprising that they didn’t help the injured man? They were all from the same country. They were all Jewish. A priest should know to show God’s love to others.

● What did the Good Samaritan give to the innkeeper? Two silver coins; money to take care of the man.

● Who is our neighbor? Everyone.

OPTIONAL TAKE-HOME TRADING CARD:

Optional: Hand out GizmoGO! trading cards for THE GOOD SAMARITAN, one per child. These are available for purchase under Products. Explain to the children that there is a different trading card for each of the three lessons, so if they come back to Sunday school each week, they can collect all three! (Last time was the RIG card, and before that was THE WIND-UP ROBOT-ACCEPTING DIFFERENCES card.)
