Comments on: The Bread of Life, A Lesson Plan http://principleddiscovery.com/2006/09/30/the-bread-of-life-a-lesson-plan/ If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do? --Psalm 11:3 Thu, 08 Jan 2009 17:03:21 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Dana http://principleddiscovery.com/2006/09/30/the-bread-of-life-a-lesson-plan/#comment-660 Dana Fri, 10 Aug 2007 06:45:00 +0000 http://principleddiscovery.com/?p=276#comment-660 Thanks, Heather! I love this style of teaching because it seems more to me like the way Jesus taught, ie., through object lessons and metaphor. The children are engaged and very involved.<br/><br/>Things don't always go so smoothly, but I have been trying to develop the habit of thinking more like this so that it comes more naturally.<br/><br/>And what is it with those boys that just wander off when it just starts to really get interesting? My son is definitely there for the dough punching, though. Thanks, Heather!

Things don’t always go so smoothly, but I have been trying to develop the habit of thinking more like this so that it comes more naturally.

And what is it with those boys that just wander off when it just starts to really get interesting? My son is definitely there for the dough punching, though.

Well, that is when I have my act together. I turn everything into a discussion while we look for physical illustrations and the kids gladly participate--until my youngest and only boy gets tired of it and wanders off to play on his own.

We love Middle Eastern foods. I make Hummus all of the time. There is some in my refrigerator right now. My husband has tried to make Indian flatbread, but it didn't come out like the lovely Naan in the restaurants (they use a tandoor to cook it). Your bread looks great! I love how you brought the focus of your lesson around Christ. This is how Jesus taught... simple proverbs with every-day materials. Deep spiritual lessons that are so easy, a little child can grasp them! :) This is an awesome lesson plan. We love Middle Eastern foods. I make Hummus all of the time.
