Books of the Bible Charts!!

 


Greetings! 

Today I want to share with you my books of the Bible charts! 

I downloaded the colored books of the Bible here and they printed beautifully!

I love using black behind color. It looks so sharp and gives the subject an extra POP to draw one's attention to the subject. 

I used 2 black poster boards and taped them together on the back with clear packing tape. Then cut long strips of green poster board to make the boarders and sections for each division. 

I arranged the books in their divisions, trimmed and added the green poster strips along with the name of each division. 

It takes and flat work surface, time, and patience as you check and recheck the arrangement before gluing. 

I used regular Elmer's glue.  

These posters are not laminated. (I opted not to risk the laminate coming up from the edges of the thicker strips, and too, sometimes there is a glare from the lights and all the students cannot see the images.)



If you are wondering about the background splotches, 
the one my finger is pointing to was an accident, 
so, to fix it I made a bunch more! 


The first time I used these posters, 
I mounted them onto foam board, leaned them against the wall, standing on the table.
Notice the Velcro has not been added here.  



Here are the finished posters in my classroom! 
I added black circle Velcro to each book so we can highlight the book(s) 
our studies are from with an arrow or a star! 
I love an interactive poster!  



I hope you try making these posters! 

Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave a comment! 



Have a happy day!

Unscrambling Bible Words!

 


Hello and Welcome!
Today I'm sharing something easy, challenging, and fun!

Unscrambling Words from 

our Bible Lesson!



My students love a challenge, 
and what is better than a Bible lesson challenge!

This challenge can be done before class as students arrive, 
or after the lesson so the students may be more familiar 
with the words in the lesson.
Also, once the words are unscrambled, 
it's fun to ask the students how each word was used 
in the Bible lesson.

Using my computer, 
I formatted each word of the wall title,
in upper- and lower-case letters,

"Unscramble Words from Today's Bible Lesson"
 
then the words I chose to scramble up 
from our Bible lesson I formatted
 in all capital letters to make it more challenging 
for grades 5-6. 

Each word had it's own color 
which made it easier to keep each word separated. 

Then made a key for myself so I could easily help 
anyone who may have gotten stuck. 

After printing, I cut out each letter 
and stored them in a zip-lock with the key. 

I LOVE using "Mickey" hands to draw attention 
to places around our classroom!
(The "Mickey" hands were found on the internet.) 

Because of space, I didn't use our rolling stand, 
but ended up stapling our pocket chart to the wall 
which worked out perfectly!

If you don't have a pocket chart, the table works GREAT!

The words I chose: 
ungodly, tree, water, prosper, fruit, 
righteous, chaff, stand, delight, sit, 
walk, wind, night, sinner, blessed, and godly.
