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:
● What are the people building in the picture? A wall around the city of Jerusalem.
● Why were some people holding spears and shields? To protect the workers from their enemies who did not want the walls rebuilt.
● Who gave strength and courage to Nehemiah and the other (Israelite) workers? God.
● Do you remember how long it took to rebuild the city wall? Fifty-two days.
OPTIONAL TRADING CARD:
Optional: Hand out GizmoGO! trading cards for NEHEMIAH, one per child. These are available for purchase under Products. Explain that there is a different trading card for each of the three lessons, so if they come back to class each week, they can collect all three! (Lesson 1 was THE INVASION OF THE BUG-O-MYTES—WORKING TOGETHER, Lesson 2 was RODNEY.)
