Bible Explorer Lesson 4 Croftlands Juniors

This afternoon I had a great time at Croftlands Junior school with the year 5's doing lesson 4 of Bible Explorer.  This afternoon's lesson focused on the 3 kings of the United Kingdom Saul, David and Solomon.  It also touches on the life of Samuel as the last Judge, Prophet and leader of Israel.  The lesson ends as the land is divided into Northern Israel and Southern Judah and the 19 kings that ruled Israel not following God and the 8 Kings out of 20 that followed God in Judah.  The children happily joined int the lesson with lots of hands going up for the various parts to play.  The children also managed to remember all the hand signs from the previous three weeks lessons as well.  Next week is the last lesson with them so we will complete the story then.  The children can't wait and neither can I as I love the story of Esther.
