Instructions for Preschool to Early Elementary Journals Lessons

Dear Student,
Welcome to your Old Testament Bible Study Journal! We are excited to take you through the Old Testament.

Here are a few of the supplies you will need to get started:

  • The Bible of Your Choice
  • Pencil and colored pencils
  • Optional: Class Notebook used for extra notes, drawings, or charting space. This can be a notebook of your choice.

      Each lesson will include the same activities, but not always in the same order. Lessons are grouped in sets of five, with a Notes page at the end of each set. You can do the lessons at your own pace, or according to your teacher’s schedule.

      Today I am thankful for…
      In this section you will write or draw something for which you are thankful. Being thankful will make our
      days brighter, help our attitudes, and encourage others be thankful too. Try to find something new and
      different to be thankful for each day.

      Today I am praying for…
      Prayer is simply talking to God. In this section, you will write or draw something or someone you are
      praying for today. When we pray, God hears and answers our prayers. As you see God answer your
      prayers, be sure to tell others or write it down in the Notes page or in your Class Notebook.

      Read
      First, read (or have someone read for you) the Bible verses and think about the passage. After that is done, then read (or have someone read for you) the notes for this lesson.

      Draw
      After you have read the verses and notes, draw something that represents what you learned from this
      lesson. If you need more space for your drawings, use the Notes page or your Class Notebook.

      Questions
      How well were you paying attention? The questions will help you know. The answers can be given verbally, written, or drawn in the Notes page or your Class Notebook.

      Memory Verse

      Each day of your lesson, practice your memory verse for that set of lessons. You can use any version of the Bible version of your choice Memorizing verses helps us to hide God’s Word in our hearts (minds).
      Ps. 119:11

      Are you ready to get started? We pray that as you read and study the characters and events of the Old
      Testament that you will learn to love God more and draw closer to Him.

      Happy Journaling through the Bible,

      Dianna & RaShell
