Cathy's Corner: Peter's Life

This is an overview (extended) lesson on Peter. The visuals and lesson are included along with a matching worksheet. This can be used as a Chalk Talk.

Cathy has these visuals in her Bible class materials and I was permitted to recreate them to share with you. I created them a year ago before posting and as I was checking everything, I decided I didn't like the  graphic that was used for the large visuals.

Cathy used a page size rooster head and when I tried to enlarge any of the graphics I could find, they didn't look right. Some of you saw the original post before I decided to temporarily disable it so I could update it. So, I hope you will give this one another chance!

So, although I have really tried to recreate all of Cathy's printables to be like hers, this one is different. I decided to use a full rooster instead of just the head for the full size visuals. These look much better. And, in the last year with a new program I am using, I am able to make the visuals look so much better.

And, I liked this so much, I decided to teach it! I had one extra week to fill, and used this one. Peter is just so interesting and I love being able to teach all the main points of a Bible person at one time. The kids (and me) learn and remember more when you see it like this. I have to say "Great lesson, Cathy."

To use this as a Chalk Talk, follow the Add... that are in parenthesis in the lesson outline below. This can be written on a chalkboard, or whiteboard. Or, you can write the words before class and refer to them. Click here to download the visuals.

Since I decided to teach this lesson, I added a corresponding worksheet. I let the students fill in the spaces with short key words as we discussed the lesson. Click here to download.
