First Unit:  The Principles of Creation
Review for the First Unit

Theme for the year:  "God is my friend"  Father's Words "Do not be discouraged.  Even though sometimes you feel that there is no God, know that He is always present.  With That feeling you must remember that God is with you." The Way of Tradition, Vol. 1, p. 2

Father's Words for the Principles of Creation Unit:  "You are a Son of God or a prince of God, or a princess of God.  In order to deserve this title, you must learn to think as God thinks, live as God lives, and be concerned as God is concerned, and love as God loves. The Way of Tradition, Vol. 1, p. 265.

Warm Up

Ask each student if they prayed for their prayer partner.  Give them a few minutes to talk with their prayer partner(s) and to see if there is a special need to pray for during the coming week.

Review for the Principles of Creation Unit

Give each student a paper plate and a sheet of paper..  Also, give each one a crayon.  Ask the students to make 14 pie shapes on their paper plate, leaving the white space blank.

Ask the class each of the following questions.  The first student to raise his hand answers.  A correct answer allows that student to fill in one space on his board.  If the answer is wrong, let all students write down their answers on a separate piece of paper.  Every student who writes the right answer fills in a section on their "pie" on the paper plate.  First one with a full board wins.
