Lesson 2: Adam and Eve fall

I. Intro

I've added a picture on the timeline (See "The basics" on the right) and start the class by talking about family history. What are their parents names and grandparents names and how far back can they go? This relates to todays story as Adam and Eve are our first parents.

II. Bible Story

For todays lesson I will being moving to different rooms. Yes, I know that this causes confusion with the kids, but I have found that a change in environment aid in thier concentration.

For the first part of the lesson I read from the children's bible about the creation of Adam and Eve.

Next I move to another room where I've placed a fake tree in the front of the sitting area. I have my High School assistent put on a a sock puppet of a snake that I have created and have the "snake" sit in the tree.

I then invite two students (a boy and girl) to the front of the class to help act out the rest of the story (which I read from the Bible)

III. Memory Verse

IV. Game

I created a game board and used questions from the following site:

This is a great set of questions because it goes into the different levels of how the student thinks.
