Curriculum Materials for 4th and 5th Grades

CREATE THE ENVIRONMENT: THE BIG GIVE Keep things simple and put out some traditional Christmas decorations— the more kid-friendly they are, the better! Then make it look like you’re in the middle of creating the backdrop for a Christmas play. You could have a few labeled boxes and plastic bins stacked up as if you were in the process of unpacking and setting up, with some things inside sticking out a bit at different angles, to add visual interest.

H2GO!: Track your progress! If you’re participating in H2GO!, make sure you’ve got a fun, visual way to show how far you’ve come … and how far you hope to go! If any of your kids or families has come up with particularly creative ways to raise money, share those ideas with everyone.

GET REEL: This month with Get Reel 2.0, show kids how to give big so they can discover how to do something about someone else’s need.

This week, we recommend playing the Dear God video to inspire the key faith skill of Dialoguing with God. The Dear God video shows a young girl who notices another girl at school who doesn’t have a winter jacket and whose clothes aren’t in good shape. So, she sneaks into her locker and gives up her own winter jacket as a present. She does this because she remembers everything God has given up for her and she wants to return the favor to others.

Also on Get Reel 2.0, you can enhance your environment with themed audio transitions (music) to help you move between segments in your Large Group production.

Host enters, wearing festive Christmas accessories (cheesy sweater, antlers, scarf, etc.).

OPENER HOST: “Well, hello everybody. Merry Christmas! We’re getting closer and closer to the big day, and I’m SO EXCITED! I know you are too!”

(Talking quickly and excitedly) “I love everything about Christmas! I love caroling and hot chocolate and fuzzy sweaters and snow angels and gingerbread houses and one-horse open sleighs. I love getting a tree and putting the star on top and getting sap that won’t wash off for a WEEK all over my hands. I love CHRISTMAS!

“But I think my favorite thing about Christmas would have to be the GIFTS. Christmas is all about the very best gift of all time, when God sent Jesus to be our Savior. God showed us exactly what compassion is all about when He gave us Jesus, because compassion is caring enough to do something about someone else’s need.

CG: Cooperation Slide

“And you and me? We should show compassion, too. We should show God’s love to other people by seeing what they need and then doing something about it … by treating others the way we want to be treated. Compassion is a really big deal, and God can do BIG things through us if we’re willing to live it out!

“So God sent us the greatest gift—His Son. And one of the reasons we give each other gifts at Christmas is to remember what God did for us. Pretty cool! How many of you guys have ever gotten a really great gift at Christmas? Raise your hand. (Pause.) Okay, good. I’ve gotten some pretty awesome ones too.

Give two or three examples of gifts you’ve received over the years. If possible, bring the items in to show to the kids. The more ridiculous, the better … or go for the ‘wow’ factor (maybe a live cat or dog).

“Ah, yes … like I said, I love Christmas. And I love gifts! Now, if you were here last week, you know that I’ve got a big part in our play, ‘The Big Give.’ I’m actually going to be the director—you know (dramatically) … lights, camera, action!

Pick up the binder that says ‘The Big Give.’

“‘The Big Give’ is all about Christmas, when God sent Jesus—the greatest gift EVER—and showed us the ultimate example of compassion. Last week’s rehearsal went pretty well, but we’ve got a new scene to practice today. We’re gearing up for our big production in a couple of weeks, and I really want to do a good job!

WORSHIP WORSHIP LEADER: “It is Christmastime! And what fun it is to celebrate this season with some Christmas music. Let’s sing this song about the greatest gift the world has ever known, ‘Joy to the World’!”

WORSHIP LEADER: “Yeah, that was awesome. This Christmas season is truly about Jesus. We’re having fun learning all about that. Let’s get loud as we sing out ‘Jesus, You’re better than the best thing.’ Let’s get loud and sing together on this next song!”

SFX: “Better Than the Best Thing” / track 5 from Turn It Up

Storyteller and Host enter as Worship Leaders exit. Host gets ready with his binder while Storyteller talks to the kids.

SETTING UP THE STORY STORYTELLER: (To audience) “Hey, guys! Thanks for being our audience for today’s rehearsal. I’m the narrator, and [Host’s name] is getting ready to direct us all.”

HOST: “We’re moving on to a new scene today, but first, practice scene one just to make sure we’ve got it.(Looks at script.) I need an Isaiah, a Gabriel, a Zechariah, an Elizabeth, and a Mary.

Host hands the binder to Storyteller and then very quickly brings up five people to play these parts (preferably the same people as last week, if they’re there). He gives them the same props they used last week (brown bear for Isaiah, Angels’ baseball cap for Gabriel, gray beard for Zechariah, and granny wig for Elizabeth).

HOST: “Okay, is everybody ready? Let’s do (dramatically) scene one, take two!”

STORYTELLER: (Reads from binder.) “God promised through His prophets—like Isaiah—that He would one day send someone to rescue His people. If we look here at the Big Story Timeline, you can see that’s here (points to spot on map between the Lost Tribes and the Promised One).

Host gets Isaiah to wave his arms in the air like he’s talking.

“The Israelites hadn’t heard from God in 400 years, but then God sent the angel Gabriel to an elderly priest named Zechariah.

Host brings Gabriel and Zechariah face-to-face.

“The angel told Zechariah that his wife, Elizabeth—who was OLD—would have a son named John. And it happened, just like the angel said!

Host brings Elizabeth next to Zechariah and acts like he’s going to rub her belly. Then he goes over to Mary.

“Meanwhile, Elizabeth’s cousin Mary was getting ready to be married to a man named Joseph. One day, the angel Gabriel came to Mary.

Host brings Gabriel over to Mary and gets Gabriel to raise his hands.

“Gabriel said, ‘Don’t be afraid, Mary. God has chosen you to give birth to a son named Jesus—the Son of God, the One who would rescue us all.’”

HOST: “Awesome. That’s a wrap! Great job, everybody! Scene two is going to be from the first part of Luke, chapter 2 (holds up Bible). Remember, even if you think you know this story pretty well, you might catch something new! First things first, though …(rubs hands together in anticipation) we need a Joseph.

Host picks a boy from the crowd and brings him up on stage.

(To Joseph) “Hey, Joseph. You can stand up front here with Mary. (To the other actors) And you guys can stay put up here in the back, because we might need some of you for this scene too.”

THE CENSUS STORYTELLER: (Reads from binder.) “Since the very beginning, the broken world had been separated from God. But God had a plan to save us, and He had already set it in motion by sending an angel to a young woman named Mary.

A new baby would definitely complicate Mary’s life. But the Roman emperor Caesar Augustus was about to make it even harder.”

HOST: (Looking out in the crowd) “Caesar Augustus … Caesar Augustus … (to a boy) is your name Caesar Augustus? No? Well, it is today. Come on up here.”

Host gives the boy a crown and motions for the Storyteller to continue.

STORYTELLER: (Reads from binder.) “The emperor sent a decree. It said that everyone had to go to their hometown to be counted.” (Pauses.)

Host gives the boy a megaphone.

STORYTELLER: (Reads from binder.) “It said that everyone had to go to their hometown to be counted.” (Pauses.)

Host motions for the boy to say the line out toward the audience.

CAESAR AUGUSTUS (KID): “Everyone has to go their hometown to be counted.”

HOST: “Great job!”

STORYTELLER: (Reads from binder.) “And even though Mary was having a baby, she traveled with Joseph to Bethlehem, where Joseph’s family was from, which was 70 miles away!”

HOST: (Interrupting) “Side note: that’s like from here to [somewhere 70 miles away from your church] … without a car! (To Mary and Joseph) Sorry, guys, but you heard him … let’s go!

SFX: “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas”

Host makes Mary and Joseph travel around the stage in a figure eight.

HOST: (To Mary and Joseph) “Man, you guys must be exhausted! (To Storyteller) Tell us what happened when they got there.”

NO ROOM AT THE INN STORYTELLER: (Reading from the binder) “So they made the journey to Bethlehem, but when they arrived, they discovered that everyone else had come to be counted, too! The streets and inns were jammed. There was no room!

Host moves Mary and Joseph’s arms so they’re shrugging.

(Still reading) “So they ended up in a stall with the animals.

Host puts some stuffed animals around Mary and Joseph.

JESUS IS BORN/MICAH 5:2 STORYTELLER: (Still reading) “And that night, Mary’s baby was born—God’s Son, Jesus!”

Host hands a baby doll to Mary (wrapped up in a blanket).

(Still reading) “Mary wrapped Jesus tightly in a blanket and laid Him down to sleep in a feeding trough for the animals.

Host gets Mary to put the baby in the manger.

STORYTELLER: (Still reading) “Together they stared down at this perfect new baby boy. He deserved a real bed instead of a manger in Bethlehem. But even THAT had been part of God’s plan since the beginning.”

HOST: (Looking up at Storyteller) “Wait, you mean the Bethlehem part was in God’s plan too?”

STORYTELLER: (To Host) “Yep. God actually promised it hundreds of years earlier through another one of the prophets, Micah. (Holds up Bible.) It’s right here in Micah, chapter 5, verse 2.”

Host looks at the lineup of volunteers across the back of the stage and lands on the Isaiah actor.

HOST: (To Isaiah) “You know, you’re really good at being a prophet. Can you be the prophet Micah for us?”

Host gives the volunteer the M cap or a nametag that says “Micah”; he’s already wearing the fake beard. Storyteller gives him his cue card.

MICAH (SGL): (Reads the cue card.) “Bethlehem, though you are small, out of you will come a ruler over Israel.” (paraphrase, Micah 5:2)

HOST: (To Micah) “Thanks, Micah. (High fives the volunteer and then says to audience) Pretty cool, huh? God promised it WAY before it ever happened. The Bible is full of cool promises like that and a lot of them came true with Jesus! And you can imagine that Mary probably would have known about those promises, too.”

Storyteller closes the binder. Host walks over to him, clapping for all the volunteers.

HOST: “Excellent! That’s a wrap for scene two. How about a hand for [Storyteller’s name] and our actors? You can all head back to your seats.”

Volunteers go back to their seats. Host stays on stage with Storyteller.

WRAPPING UP THE STORY HOST: (To Storyteller) “That was great! I’ve got to be honest, I kind of love this directing thing.”

STORYTELLER: (To Host) “Good! Next week we’ll pick up the story with scene three. (To audience) Guys, here’s what I love about the Christmas story. God gave us the greatest, most amazing gift EVER when He sent Jesus. It was the ultimate act of compassion. It was a gift He had planned since the beginning and it’s a gift that means we get to live FOREVER with Him when we choose to believe in Jesus!”

CG: Memory Verse Slide

HOST: “That’s exactly what our Memory Verse says: ‘God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life.’” (John 3:16, NIrV)

STORYTELLER: “I remember when I really got that and made the decision to believe in Jesus for myself.”

Host and Storyteller each tell a brief explanation (just a few sentences) of how they heard about Jesus and put their faith in Him.

STORYTELLER: “And here’s something else that’s just amazing. When we have a relationship with God, He helps us to start becoming like Him. So just like God gave us an incredible gift, we can give to the people around us!

“Now, sure, you can give ‘stuff’—like when you save up your allowance and buy a doll for your little sister, or you give one of your favorite video games to your friend. But sometimes the most important things you can give are things you can’t see or buy, like your time! It might be a HUGE gift to your grandpa if you sit down and play a game with him for an hour. Or offer to help your mom clean up the kitchen after dinner. You can even give your words, too! Encourage your teacher

HOST: “Yep, and another GREAT way to show compassion and give is to …”

STORYTELLER: “So here’s what we need to remember: God gave us the greatest gift. What will you give? Let’s pray.”

PRAY STORYTELLER: “God, thank You for giving us Jesus—the greatest gift we could ever receive. Thanks for loving us so much that You gave Your only Son, so that if we believe in Him, we can receive eternal life. That’s the best news EVER! Thanks for showing us that kind of compassion. Help us to see ways that we can give and show compassion to others. We love You! In Jesus’ name, amen.”
