Dear Teacher/Parent,

We are grateful for the opportunity to present these Primary Activity Worksheets and would like to express our thanks to the many brethren and sisters for their substantial help and input.

Our aim in presenting these worksheets is to reinforce the material in the lesson notes and provide interesting activities for 5-8 year old children. There is a great range of skills and different levels of development in this age group and we have attempted to address this with a variety of activities. Please use discretion in the setting of tasks, as required by the individual student, so that each might be encouraged in these wonderful and dramatic scriptural events.

If you have any suggestions or have activities of similar style, we would welcome contributions. For further ideas please make use of the free resources and teachers' guides on the C.S.S.A. website.

Our prayer is that Yahweh will bless the endeavours of young minds to grow in an appreciation of His ways.
