Mrs Ishak & Mrs Bentley share a little about their holiday break. What did you do during the holidays?

BIBLE

Lesson 35 – God's Word about Canaan proves true, but Israel fails to trust God

Read: Numbers 13 - 14. (see below for some pages from a children's bible)

Key themes: The promises of God prove true; God's word can be trusted

God is pleased when His people have faith in Him

Just before the holidays we followed the Israelites as they left slavery in Egypt, crossed the Red Sea, were given the ten commandments and disobeyed God with the golden calf. We learned that God took care of the people when they were in the desert. In this lesson Moses sends spies into Canaan to check out what God's promised land was like and collect some fruit to bring back. The spies reported back to Moses. Moses and two of the spies assure the people that God wants them to move into the land but the Israelites were worried about the size of the people living there and they don't trust God.

Lesson 35 page 2.pdf

Lesson 37 - God brings His people into the promised land

Read: Joshua 1 - 3 (see below for some pages from a children's bible)

Key themes: God always fulfills His promises.

He is trustworthy and His word always proves true.

God will not fail or forsake His people.

This lesson starts with Moses being replaced by Joshua as the leader of the Israelites and he is told to be "strong and courageous" and God promises to always be with him. The next section tells of how Rahab hid the two spies on their visit to the city of Jericho. Finally the Israelites cross the Jordan into Canaan.

SNOW BEAR ART

Follow the steps below to create this bear who is so cold in the snow that he is going to hibernate.

Tear strips from your brown paper.

Tear the strips into small squares.

Glue the squares onto the bear's head. Overlap the paper so you don't leave any spaces.

This is what your bear's head will look like.

Use some of your snowflakes to add to the picture. (Don't use all of them because the rest of them are for an activity next week)

Stick the googly eyes on.

Draw a nose and mouth and little semi circles for the ears.

Snow Bears

Now that you have created your beautiful Snow Bear artwork, listen to this lovely story.

Do you know where Mummy Bear's baby bears are?

From the story, what was your favourite snow bear game?

Olaf & Elsa Headband

Olaf

Colour his eyebrows, eyeballs carrot nose and stick.

2. Carefully cut along the dotted line to separate the face from the teeth and branch. Next cut the branch and around the outside of the teeth.

3. Glue teeth above the small dotted line and press under mouth. Add the branch using glue or tape. Add another strip of card to the face to make a headband that fits your head.

Elsa

Carefully cut out the crown.

2. Next carefully cut out the tear shape and diamond. Glue the blue diamond onto the white tear shape. Add some gems.

3. Take the strip of card and measure around your head.

4. Attach the headband to the crown.

Now you are ready to dance around!

Please keep your headband in a safe spot so you can wear it for next week's remote Pyjama Day!

Symmetry

God has made some amazing patterns in nature. Petals on flowers, rainbows, veins on leaves, butterflies etc. Snowflakes are symmetrical. That means that both halves of the snowflake are exactly the same. If they were folded in half they would match perfectly.

This is what snowflakes look like under a scientist's microscope.

Symmetrical Mittens

Have a look at these two sets of mittens. One pair have been coloured symmetrically and the other hasn't. Can you tell the difference?

In your pack find the mittens and try and colour them so that both sides are exactly the same. On the blank ones you can create patterns of your own. Just remember, whatever you do on one mitten, you have to do the same on the other.
