Joshua: Into the Promised Land!

We had great fun traveling with the Israelites into the Promised Land! After 40 years of wandering, it was great to finally arrive and watch God's plan unfold!

Our Memory Verse was Joshua 1:9. Building the story with legos! River Jordan, Priests with Ark, Jericho and the Promised Land in the background! Note the priests (with trumpets) carrying the Ark of the Covenant! Getting ready for the show in Holy Word Theatre! After the movie it's time to write in journals. K-1 graders draw about their favorite part of the story. What is your favorite part? In Bible Quest we played a review game using our Life-Sized Board Game! Even grown-ups have fun playing! We LOVE the games workshop! Fun and Games and learning too! In Raiders of the Lost Art.... we painted Remembrance Rocks to remind us about how God stopped the flow ... of the River Jordan so the Israelites could cross on dry land. And how they built a memorial using 12 stones from the river bed. Our Remembrance Rocks will remind us of the mighty acts of our God! In Cyber Space we reviewed the story using our Story cards. Then we tested our memory using "Fall of Jericho" computer review game. Don't forget to read all the answers first! Then we finished by illustrating different parts of the story. Do you like my picture? In Solid Rock Cafe we created Jericho's walls using.... Rice Krispies treats! YUM! Hmmmm.... is that Rahab's red cord? In Sunday Morning Live we enjoyed acting out this great adventure! Rahab hides the spies from the king's men! The priests lead the people to the edge of the River Jordan... what will happen? The water stops flowing so the people cross on dry land! The Israelites pick up 12 stones from the middle of the river bed. We make a memorial using the 12 stones from the River Jordan. Camped out on the other side of the River Jordan... waiting for the plan. Marching around the city of Jericho, blowing trumpets! After 7 days of marching and blowing, the walls come down!
