6 Word Memoirs

The other day, one of my colleagues led our 5th and 6th graders in a 6 word memoir lesson.  I had heard of the memoirs but had no real experience with them.  Each student was to write one memoir about a Bible character and one about themselves.  Here are mine:

Hezekiah: God, You can stop him.
Me: Know the truth and live it.

Here are some other neat ones from the students.

  • Jesus: I love you more than you imagine.
  • Noah: Slow animals like snails! Rain coming!
  • Female student: I don't deserve these blessings.
  • Noah: Leave the unicorns, they're too ugly.
  • Male student- Nice, friendly, curious, adventurous, nature, happy!
  • Male student- Family's pain, I help them through.
  • Female student - Happy, careless. Divorce changed life forever.
  • Noah: Shem, go get... ROAR! Never mind
  • Female student: Loves books, loves animals, love God
  • Adam: First man ever, lived in garden.
  • Male student: I want to go to UK.
  • Job: He suffered, believed, and was rewarded.
  • Female student: You carried me through this time.
  • Jesus: He lived, He died, He ascended
  • Female student: My Savior lives, He's Jesus Christ.
  • Female student: He died, I am now free.
  • Female student: Was afraid, but found His love.
  • Esther: Scared afraid, but ready to lead

What is your 6 word memoir?

Heaven and Hell

Our sixth grade students were encouraged to write down questions about heaven and hell this past week.  Here is my Bible class curriculum for the week.  Wow!  Deep stuff...


HEAVEN AND HELL QUESTIONS 2012

Are there animals there?

If hell is the bad people’s waiting room, where is good people’s waiting room?

I thought Heaven was paradise, but you said Jesus took people from paradise to Heaven.

If you go to hell and there is a second judgment, you can’t go to heaven, can you?

If we die and we got to heaven and the new earth and new heaven are created, where do we go?

When we die today, do we go to paradise or heaven?

When we die will we go to new heaven or new earth?

Does it say in the Bible that heaven will be on earth someday?

What is life like in heaven?

What exactly is the Lake of Fire?

Is there more than one heaven?

What is paradise like?

What is the difference between hell and the Lake of Fire?

What do we have to do to get to heaven?
