Class 6 : PEOPLE WHO EXPERIENCED JESUS

PROPHESIES ARE FULFILLED

Chapter Context

This lesson introduces Annunciation and birth of Jesus. Detailed narration on Christmas and the attitude that we should have towards Christmas are included in it. This lesson would enable the children to consider Christmas as an occasion to welcome our Saviour Jesus rather than an occasion for meaningless celebration.

Teacher's Guide

  1. Conviction

    - Jesus is the Saviour who is revealed through prophecies.
    - The spirit of the season of Annunciation and the season of Nativity inspires us to live accordingly.

  2. Attitudes

    - I should recognize Jesus born in the manger as my Saviour and Lord.
    - I should always worship Jesus.

  3. Habit

    - I would seek the intercession of guardian angels.
    - I would try to keep my soul pure that, Infant Jesus would come and dwell in me.

  4. Teaching aids

    The Bible, Faith Formation Text Book, Mass Book, Christmas Cards, Pictures related to the birth of Jesus, Flash Cards, Pictures of Angels, and Picture of Mother Mary.
  5. Presentation of the lesson

    The lesson could be introduced with a ‘picture-reading’. Form groups among the students and show the picture of Annunciation to all groups and ask each group to write down what is seen in the picture. Then ask them to locate the scene in the Bible. Congratulate the group that does the work first. Through this picture-reading you may start the lesson. Some activities that help to introduce the main idea of the lesson are listed below:

    ‘Word-sun’:

    Make a word-sun with words associated with Christmas.

    Role play:

    Read from the Bible the passage about the visit of the Wise Men and organize a role play based on it.

    Pictures of the mysteries of the Rosary:

    Ask the students to find out the Joyful mysteries in the Rosary with the help of pictures.

    Let us pray:

    Lead the children to pray devoutly joining their hands. Encourage them to pray on their on.

    Let us sing:

    Translate the theme of the lesson into a song and ask the children compose it and sing it individually or in small groups. The teacher may help them if required.

    Let us read the Word of God:

    The first day’s home work shall be a reading from a specified portion of the Bible. On next day, conduct a quiz based on the passage. Give points for the correct answers.

    A Verse to show the way:

    Give a Verse from the Bible to the students and ask them to write down on a chart paper with sketch pen or colours. This could be shown to the class and the best one may be put up on the wall. When the class room thus becomes beautiful, the verse may stick to the students’ mind.

    Let us do:

    A very simple activity has been given in the text book. Ask the student to do it. If they find it difficult the teacher may help them.

    My decision:

    The habit that the students have to develop has been given in the text book as their decision. Motivate them to follow the same and check whether they are observing it.


  1. Do you know the answers?

    Allow the students to open the text book. Ask a few questions the answers of which are some words in the lesson. Award points to those who give correct answers.
  2. Carol Song

    Make children into small groups and ask them to sing some familiar carol songs.
  3. Let’s pray with ejaculatory prayer:

    Let’s pray following prayers for Baby Jesus. let each group write down certain number of prayers. “Baby Jesus, come down to my heart”. “Baby Jesus, fill my heart with your love”.
  4. Collect Pictures;

    Pictures of Infant Jesus of different places and with different features may be collected and shown in the class
