Materials Needed:  Craft sticks and markers

Directions:

1. Post the day’s Bible verse and have the children say it together five times.

2. Ask each child to write one word from the verse on each craft stick.  Write the scripture reference on one stick.

3.  Instruct everyone to turn their sticks face down and mix their order.

4.  On “Go,” each child turns sticks face up and places them in order.  Read the verse together.
