Martin's Big Words" Sample Lesson

In this lesson children learn about the power of words, especially God's words. As a young child Martin admired the way his minister father used words to give people hope and comfort, and how he spoke out against wrong even when people called him names and threatened him and his family. Martin decided that he wanted to "get some big words" like his father. He did get big powerful words and made history. This Bible lesson is found on The Resource Room a members only site.

The Crayon Box that Talked by Shane DeRolf

Box of CrayonsThe crayons in this box just can't seem to get along. Yellow doesn't like Red and no one likes Orange.

“I don’t like Red!” said Yellow,
And Green said, “Nor do I!
And no one here likes Orange,
But no one knows just why.”

It was a bad situation because they all had to live in the same box. But things begin to change when a little girl brings the crayons home and starts coloring with them. The crayons see that together they can make beautiful pictures. All the colors are important to the big picture. You can read more about this book at Amazon.com

 

 

Crayon Box Display

This display can be used to act out the story. Move the crayons as they speak as you read the story. Make happy faces on one side of the crayons and sad faces on the other. At the end of the story, when the crayons realize that everyone is important, turn the crayons over to the happy side. The front of the box measures 9" x 13" and the back measures 15 1/2" x 13". Print out the crayon patterns (Printing Problems?) onto different colors of paper, cut them out, and add faces, hands, and feet.
