Repetition of the biblical story - according to the figures on the numbers.

The teacher shows the golden verse with movements:

"In the beginning" - gets up,

“created” - with his hands he “sculpts a bun”,

"God" - with one hand points to the sky,

"sky" - both hands stretched high, high,

“and the earth” - hands are lowered low crouching.

“Gen. 1:1,” he says, sitting down.

Children repeat after the teacher at first slowly, then faster. Then at will, who will say the verse faster.

Application:

ball game. The teacher calls the word and throws the ball to the children, sitting in one line, in order. If what the teacher called was created by God, then the children catch the ball, if not, then they throw it away. For example: table, bear, ram, radish, T-shirt, earth, lamp, moon, plate, etc. Or work with the picture "Created by God or made by man."

A game.- Guys, for whom did God create such a wonderful world? (For us). Do you think we can hurt animals or break trees (no). And what should we do? (on the contrary, take care).

The teacher distributes objects or drawings to the children. Children must determine who these objects or drawings refer to: bad children or good ones who care about the environment, and tell what these objects are for:

stick, bowl with bone,

leg crumples flower, watering can,

feeder with bread crumbs,

How would you like to act? How does God want us to act? (take care of nature).

teacher about the lesson

The primordial world was very good and simply wonderful, the Bible testifies to this in the first chapter of the book of Genesis. For a beautiful and perfect creation, praise and thanksgiving to its Creator resounds in our hearts. (Ps. 8:9). We admire the proud beauty of mountain peaks, the vast expanse of green plains stretching into the distance, the harsh rebelliousness of the roaring sea, the splendor of the starry sky flashing with flickering!

The fifth and sixth days of creation (lesson 2) surprise us with the diversity of the animal world that appeared. All these forms of life were created by the Great Creator. They also make us marvel and pray with the psalmist: “How many are thy works, O Lord! You have done everything in wisdom; the earth is full of your works." Ps. 103:24. And, if adults, deprived of simplicity, are surprised at God's creation, how much more are children surprised at him. And this is natural for them. For this, by talking about creation on the fifth and sixth days, maintain a childish delight. Telling them that everything they see, feel, breathe, hear and know is created by God, you begin to instill in your little listeners a deep, important picture of life, a picture of complete harmony. This perfection prompts us to thank God for the world around us.

The Bible says that of all God's creation, only people are given the opportunity to atone for their guilt before God. Animals and humans were created on the same day. And the Bible says how God blessed them. (Gen. 1:22; 1:28). | We humans have a special responsibility towards them. Your listeners are still too young to understand and accept this responsibility, but they can and should be taught to respect other living beings as God's creatures and take care of their well-being. We earnestly ask you to work diligently on this lesson. The animal world created by God amazes us with its diversity, incomprehensibility and perfection. Part of creation, like all the rest, teaches us and shows the greatness of the self of God.

During the classes

materials

1. Live animal, bird or fish.

2. Color illustrations of the previous lesson.

Last week we presented the children with a picture of creation. But that was only the beginning. In today's lesson, we will cover the topic of creating birds, fish and animals. You need to keep your three year olds interested. To do this, get ready to benefit from their boundless curiosity and genuine love for God's creations! You can start with a live illustration by bringing a puppy, kitten, bird, or aquarium goldfish to class. You can also bring a butterfly to class for the children to look at, touch, or hold. At this time, talk about how beautifully they are all created, pointing out their eyes, mouth, paws, wings, and other features. When you finish, tell the children that only God could create everything so beautifully and interestingly!

After you have finished looking at the animals, show the children the illustrations you used in the last lesson to represent the beauty of God's world. Hold up all the pictures one by one and ask your children to describe them. At the same time, ask who created what they see. Use every opportunity to remind you of the basic truth of the first lesson: God created the world beautiful and perfect! Then tell the children that you have some more pictures you would like to show them today. Emphasize that they depict other equally wonderful creations of God.

bible story

Materials.

2. Color illustrations depicting animals, fish and birds.

Show the children your Bible, reminding them that the story you are about to tell is in God's Book. And also prepare some illustrations depicting the creation and spread it on your knees. God looked around at the beautiful world that He had created. He liked him very much. The world God created looked so amazing, so good. God liked both the sun and the moon. (Show the children the picture of the sun and the night sky.) He liked both land and water. (Show the illustration of the sea and land.) He especially liked the plant world! (Show the plants to the children.) But God is not finished yet. Oh no! It's not over yet. God wanted to create many more creations. (Use the illustrations from the previous lesson as you tell the story.) “I will fill the waters of all the lakes, streams and oceans with life!” God said. And it became so. Well, what do you think, what kind of living creatures God will place;! in water? (Give the children a moment to think and then show the picture of the fish.) Fish! Yes, there were fish everywhere. Big, small, fast and slow.

“I am also going to fill the air with living creatures,” God said. And now the air was filled. Can you tell me what it was filled with? (Listen to the sentences, and then show the children the picture of the birds.) Birds! Birds of different colors and sizes. Robins, jays, eagle owls, sparrows, peacocks, doves... How beautiful it all is! God spoke again and said, "Let there be animals in My world!" Bears and lions, dogs and cats, and many different other animals filled the forests, fields, hills and plains. (Show the children the animals.) Now God's peace was almost complete. God looked around at all the beautiful things He had created. God's world looked very beautiful. But that wasn't all...

When you finish telling the Bible story, take time for the children to look at the pictures more closely. And also give the kids the opportunity to talk about their favorites. Emphasize that every little kitten, every dog, every parrot, fish swimming in the aquarium, was created by God!

PRACTICAL ACTIVITIES

Practical activity is the time for outdoor games, walks and creativity! Invite your children to play with you the game "Let's Draw Animals*. Let each child choose the animal they would like to portray. While playing this game, children must make sounds and move in the same way as the animal chosen by each of them does. Set an example yourself by drawing, for example, a duck. Ask the children, imitating you, to walk, waddling around the room and quack. (If the weather permits, you can play this game outside, where you have more space and freedom, and where you will not disturb anyone). If children have trouble choosing animals, be ready to help them.

Some options you can use:

Jump like rabbits or frogs;

Jump like a kangaroo;

Fly like birds;

Stomp like elephants (the trunk can be depicted with arms outstretched in front of you);

Slither on your belly like snakes and crocodiles;

Walk on all fours, depicting dogs, cats, lions, tigers, etc.;

Walk on your toes like a giraffe;

Run like horses;

Buzz and fly like bees.

To calm children down after playing, ask them to hold hands in a large circle and then sit down on the floor or grass. Finish your practice with singing. If your practice was outdoors, ask the children to return to the classroom as quietly as possible, pretending to be little mice.

CONCLUSION

Materials Picture for the Bible story. (Each one).

Sing the song “Who Could Create?” that you sang in the previous lesson. Talk to your little ones about birds, fish and animals and sing about them. Singing a song, give special meaning the one who created this wonderful world for our enjoyment. End your lesson with a prayer of thanksgiving for the wonderful wildlife. In prayer, mention your children's favorite animals. If possible, give each child a picture of a Bible story and ask the parents to read the story of God's beautiful creation at home.

ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES

1. Walk. If, for whatever reason, you weren't able to go for a walk last lesson, do so today. Even if the walk took place in the last lesson, you can repeat it again, because small children love to walk! Take a box with holes in the lid so that air can pass through. A walk is a wonderful opportunity for children to look around at the beautiful creation of God. During your walk, pay attention to the children different kinds birds, insects and other living things. Stop for a while and, closing your eyes, listen to the amazing singing of birds, the chirping of crickets and the buzzing of various insects. Take the time to look for the tiny ant or other small bugs. And, if possible, catch a few to take with you to class and then show moms and dads your little ones. With every living thing you find, remind the children of their beautiful Creator. (Make sure children don't catch bees!).

2. Light snack. A light snack may consist of cookies baked in the form of animals or fish. Discuss them with your children as you eat.

3. Rift with movement. If you started teaching rhyme 1 (Creation) with your children last week, then today repeat the first verse with them. Then add a second verse and repeat the rhyme all together until the children remember it.

4. Making an animal. If your children like to do something with their own hands, then to take the craft home. Today you can invite them to make a turtle. To do this, you will need small paper plates, models of the head, legs and tail (preferably from green paper), green crayons and felt-tip pens, glue. Assemble the turtle by showing and explaining to the children how they can do it themselves: turn the paper plate upside down; color it in green color; lay out the models of the head, legs and tail in the right places; glue all the details. (Maybe the kids can't glue them on themselves, be sure to help everyone!) After the kids show you the turtle they made, give them time to play with it.

Here are a few questions to end the lesson with:

1. Who created all the animals, birds and fish?

2. Name the animals, birds and fish that you know. 3. What is your favorite animal?

IF YOU HAVE TIME

1. To the examples of God's creation laid out on the table, add some more that are related to today's topic: live fish, insects and other living things, bird nests, feathers, shells, tortoise shell, starfish, butterfly cocoons and other things related to the animal world. Try to draw the children's attention to these objects and use every opportunity to tell them about the Creator, Who created everything around so wonderfully!

2. Prepare picture books and riddles that talk about animals. Give the children the opportunity to look at the pictures, and then make riddles. If the kids can't answer, tell them the answer.

3. Place the pot of plants you planted last week out of reach of children. Ask the children if they can now recognize seeds that have already begun to sprout. Ask those who wish to help you water the seedlings.

4. Choose a few toys with the children and arrange them on the playground, creating a zoo in the classroom. Play fishermen, zoo, circus on wheels.

5. Draw a color picture with crayons or felt-tip pens that matches the topic of today's lesson. You can also use dough that the kids can use to squeeze or shape different animals. Give each child a piece of dough and be ready to help them with this work. Prepare a simple dough: mix water and flour, based on how many children you have in your group.

Creation of the first people

II. About the life of the first people in paradise... and the loss of paradise. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You shall eat of every tree in the garden; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, do not eat from it; for on the day that you eat of it, you will die the death. And the Lord God said, It is not good to be
