Updated 07/26/16 - NEWLY BUNDLED Religion Lessons: BUNDLED Do you desperately need hands-on religion activities for your primary classroom? Here are 10 lessons ready to use at your finger tips! Build your students knowledge of the Catholic faith with 4 Interactive Notebook Lessons and 6 Additional Lessons and Activities - lesson plans and faith concepts included. Intended for Grade 1/First Grade. Content students are to understand: Jesus is the Son of God. The Bible teaches us about God and Jesus. The church is where we learn about our faith. The Church year has 5 religious seasons - Ordinary Time, Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter. God created the earth and everything in it. God created the first man, Adam, and the first woman, Eve. Jesus died on a cross; so when we pray we reverently make the sign of the cross with our hand. Jesus, the Son, God the Father, Mary the mother and Joseph the stepfather make up what Catholics call the Holy Family. Jesus is our friend, teacher, and healer. The greatest commandment Jesus gave us was to love one another just as we love ourselves. Jesus teaches us to pray. Objectives: Students must be able to correctly form the Sign of the Cross - oral test using the correct hand (right), correct words, and the correct hand movement (from my head to my heart, shoulder to shoulder, and my heart again). Students must be able to orally recall the 5 religious seasons and be able to name one symbol of each season. Students should be introduced and be familiar with the following vocabulary: Bible, Church, creation, God, Jesus, Joseph, Mary, prayer, religious seasons - Ordinary Time, Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter Inside this packet: Unit 1 Overview Religion Routine Ideas Daily Prayers Lesson 1: Faith Basics - Jesus, Son of God, the Bible, the Church, the Family Lesson 2: Religious Seasons Intro - Ordinary Time, Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter Lesson 3: Creation Story: Class Book Lesson 4: Adam and Eve - I Promise to Love the Earth Pin Craft Lesson 5: Sign of the Cross - Practice and Sign & Colour Lesson 6: The Holy Family - My Holy Family Flip-book Lesson 7: Jesus My Shepherd - Sheep Pin Craft Lesson 8: Jesus: Healer - Poster Lesson 9: How We Love - the Greatest Commandment Flower Wheel Lesson 10: How to Pray - Prayer Bookmark Also check out: Religion Lessons: BUNDLED Religion Lessons: Unit 2 {Learning the Catholic Faith} Religion Lessons: Unit 3 {Learning the Catholic Faith} Religion Lessons: Christmas {Learning the Catholic Faith} Religion Lessons: Easter {Learning the Catholic Faith} Please rate this product and follow my TpT store!
