Preparation:
Before class, print out the Ten Commandments Sheet and make enough copies
for each child in the class. Cut these copies into strips with one commandment
on each strip and put the sets into separate envelops. Then remove one
of the strips from each envelope and glue or fasten one end to a piece
of candy or a treat. This is the Missing Commandment.
What you will do:
At the end of the day's lesson, show the children all the treats. Tell
them the only way to get their treat is to complete a little challenge.
Give each child an envelope with the nine remaining commandments, a piece
of colored construction paper and a glue stick. Instruct them to glue
the commandments down in order on the construction paper, but to make
sure and leave a space for the missing commandments. After they have glued
on the nine commandments, they can come to you and identify the missing
commandment. If they can find this missing commandment among the treats,
which they will, then the treat is theirs. They can take the treat, and
glue the missing commandment on to their project. This challenge can be
completed with or without referring to their Bibles, depending on their
knowledge of the Ten Commandments.
