Teaching Thoughts
These are a few bonus ideas- keep scrolling for more!
Use my W-O-R-S-H-I-P letter posters and have your class decide what each letter can stand for to remember how and why we worship.
Discuss the places and ways we worship. For example, we worship at the temple and at church. How do they differ? How is it the same? '
Continue to discuss worship in the activity included in the Red Headed Hostess class packet.
