More about these Bible coloring pages

Last week in class, my third graders were fascinated by the story of Pentecost. As they colored pictures of the disciples and the flames above their heads, they really absorbed the lesson. The page shows how 'They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire' (Acts 2:3), which sparked many questions. We used crayons and markers, and some kids added glitter to their drawings! It's always a delight to see their creativity shine. We also talked about how this event empowered the disciples to share the Gospel. Having six different images allows for a variety of activities during our lesson, making it easier to connect with each child's learning style.
