| Bible Song: "Three In One" (Tune: "Are You Sleeping, Brother John?") Original Author Unknown. "God the Father, God the Father, (hold up on finger) God the Son, God the Son, (hold up two fingers) God the Holy Spirit, God the Holy Spirit, (hold up three fingers) Three in One, Three in One." (hold up three fingers on both hands) |
"The Story of St. Patrick's Day" by Patricia A. Pingry
The story begins with the traditional symbols of the day
that are often found in schoolrooms, such as shamrocks,
harps, and leprechauns. Then the narrative moves to a
short biography of Saint Patrick himself: as a shepherd, as a
missionary, and as a teacher. This colorfull boardbook ties
together the live of Patrick with the traditional images of
Ireland.

Morning Circle:
Review the letter "s" by asking the children if they can repeat the name of the season
learned about in the previous lesson. When they say "Spring," take out the "letter bag"
filled with objects that begin with "s." Begin by giving clues, such as "I have something in
my letter bag that begins with 's.' It's sometimes white, sometimes smelly, and it fits on my
bare foot." The children might guess "sock" and they may even say "shoe," which would
also be acceptable. Other "s" objects might include a "seven," "spider," "starfish," "sun,"
"snake," and "spoon."

Blow up a green balloon for each child and sit the balloons in
bowls or shallow dishes so they sit upright. Provide a
container of shaving foam dyed green with food coloring for
each child. Let the children put "hair" and "faces" on their

little green people. Note: This activity is messy. Protect your
learning area and the children's clothing as needed.

Read: "The Story of St. Patrick's Day" by Patricia A. Pingry
Tell the children today's Bible lesson is about yet another "s"
word..."shamrock." Ask the children if they know what a
shamrock is. Take one out and show them. Explain that they
might have seen something similar in their yard called clover.
Ask them how many leaves a shamrock has. Ask them what
color it is. Ask them if they remember what holiday is coming
soon that is all about shamrocks and the color green.

Ask them how many leaves a shamrock has. Ask them what
color it is. Ask them if they remember what holiday is coming
soon that is all about shamrocks and the color green.
Explain that St. Patrick's Day is a very old holiday that celebrates a famous Irish religious
person. Tell the children, "St. Patrick used the shamrock to show people about God. He said
it can help us remember that God is in three persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus,)
and God the Holy Spirit. This makes three important parts of one wonderful God. When you
look at the shamrock or 3-leaf clover, you can remember that God our Father in Heaven sent
His son Jesus Christ to save us from our sin, and then the Holy Spirit was sent to us to comfort
us and guide us until Jesus comes back again. Three wonderful things about our Heavenly
Father!"
(Note for parents and teachers: As with most of our holidays, St. Patrick's Day has roots in Paganism.
For this reason this lesson will not focus on leprechauns, etc. The shamrock itself was originally used
by druids for the spiritual aspect of the triad. However, St. Patrick took this ancient symbol and used it
as a means of explaining Christianity to the pagans.)

| S is for Saved This is a Bible Coloring Page you can use to talk with children about what it means to be saved. |
| Tissue Paper Shamrocks Shamrock Template Provide a cut-out shamrock for each child made from white construction or sketch paper. Give each child several shades of green tissue and crepe paper, cut into small squares (make sure these are the type that bleed color when wet.) Instruct the children to place the squares of green paper randomly on their shamrock Provide either spray bottles filled with water for each child, or a small bowl of water and soft paintbrush for each child. Let the children coat their creations with water. After the water has begun to dry out a bit, carefully peel off the paper to reveal the lovely green watercolors beneath. |
