We have been studying things that Jesus teaches us about ourselves, treating others, and about Himself in our Bible curriculum. I wanted to have a little "review" of the topics we have covered but did not want to make a test as it is a bit difficult to test students on "How does Jesus want us to treat each other?" when the obvious answers would be "kindly, nicely, etc." So, to make it a bit more practical/creative/I needed to change out the giant heart display from February I had the students pick one of the topics we learned about from Jesus' teachings. They then had to illustrate this concept. They could draw a picture, write a poem, write a short story, etc. as long as they illustrated the point we learned.
We then had a few spare moments one Friday and I thought a quick fun activity to do would be to make footsteps to place around their illustrations. The board would then read "Learning to Follow in Jesus' Footsteps." So instead of tracing our bare little feet, I had them take off a shoe, trace their shoe, and then draw the design on the bottom of their shoe. This turned into a challenging activity that really tested their fine motor skills! (How was that for an education lingo tie-in?? - hehe...no pun intended with "tie")
Here is the finished product:
