Apostles and Saints

Hello all my wonderful readers!

I know, it’s been more than a month. I have nothing to say other than, I’M SORRY! I was doing alright and then life just happened. I do apologize and I’m hoping that I can get back to posting at least once a month.

I’m here to share a FREEbie with you that can be used for apostles or saints. With All Saints’ Day and All Souls Day coming up at the beginning of November, this is perfect for that as well. It’s a set of coloring pages for the apostles in a stained glass format with a pretty cross frame. The name of each one is in a banner below the saint.

The apostle saints that are included are:

St. James
St. Matthew
St. Peter
St. Paul
St. Luke
St. Andrew
St. Thomas the Apostle
St. John the Apostle
St. John the Evangelist
St. Mark the Evangelist

Materials needed:

Updating Files

Hello all!

I think I’m sticking to my once a month posting pretty well. I’m pretty sure that I’ve missed a month here or there, but for me, that’s good! HAHA

I’m just here today to let you know that I’m working on updating some of my free resources that I share on this blog. I hope to add some to the Free Resource Library for subscribers, but I don’t know if I’ll get that far. My objective is to get many of the freebies that were here on the blog back on the blog. It’s true that some won’t be back because I updated them so that I could sell them. However others just plain got old or where I was hosting them, they got lost. There’s other things that happened too. Some things I learned couldn’t be shared, even for free (that might be for trademark, copyright, or something else). Those won’t be back, but I’m hoping to fix up many of the other files and get them someplace safe and secure where I won’t lose them again.

This project has been a long time coming. I’ve made attempts to start it before and then work or life….and they just didn’t get done. I was doing some updates the other day and realized how “old” some of the blog posts looked or how empty they were. I had missing images, missing files, and things that needed help! So, I’m here to help.

Please don’t expect this to be done quickly, as it will take time. I plan to devote as much time as possible for the rest of March to this and then continue after that. I don’t really have a way of letting you all know what’s been updated. If there’s something that you’ve looked for and it wasn’t there or unavailable, please let me know and I’ll try to work on that first. Again, please remember that I have lost files over the years and some I’m just now allowed to post for various reasons.

I hope that you all are well and that Spring has moved into the area where you live. I’m not a fan of winter at all and I dislike the cold, so this has been such a welcome change for me! Keep your eyes out for updated posts and files!

Updates:

Click on the cover images to be taken to the blog post to download the updated file.

A New Subscriber FREEbie

I know that it’s been forever and I appreciate all of you that continue to support and follow The Treasured Schoolhouse. I don’t know why, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to keep up with my blog. Actually, I don’t seem to be good at much on social media!

This year, I’m teaching my religion class via ZOOM. It’s been interesting to say the least. Since I have Kindergarten, I’m sending packets home to the parents for the students to work on. It’s gone pretty well so far. I do have a couple kids that have never shown up. It has been a challenge to get the copies run and in the mail on time for the classes though, so I decided that I was going to do one huge pack for the rest of the year! I was a couple lesson short, so I decided I’d create something for them to do.

What I came up with what the parable of The Lost Sheep. I made everything that I’ll need for class. The best part, I’m sharing it with my newsletter subscribers ONLY! All verses in the pack are based on New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE) of the Bible. This pack includes:

Word Search
Maze
Copywork for Matthew 18:10 and Luke 15:7 to print and trace
Coloring Pages for Matthew 18:12-13 and Luke 15:5-6
Answer Keys for Word Search and Maze

If you’d like to get this pack, you can go to the Home page or the right sidebar to subscribe to my newsletter. You’ll receive the password in the confirmation e-mail, so please be sure to confirm in order to have access to the Subscriber Only page!

Thanks again for following along, no matter how much or low little it is. I appreciate you more than you know!

Our Father

Do you work with your kids on their prayers? Learning and even memorizing prayers can be hard for children to do.

A few years ago, I had made a sequencing mat to put the Our Father in order. This helps children learn the proper order of the prayer. A reader asked me if I still had this available and sadly I had to tell her “no”. Well that didn’t make me happy, so I went digging through a very old back-up drive and found it! I was able to make a slight update to it and I’m able to share it with you all!

If you’re interested in this sequencing mat, Just click on the cover image above to download it. I hope that this helps your kids and makes it fun for them to learn the Our Father.

Summer and Construction Tools FREEbie

Hello my wonderful readers and followers! I know, I’ve been gone for awhile again. I’m probably one of the worst bloggers. I have good intentions and then life happens. The only thing that I now want to do is to TRY to blog more and give you all something to actually read. Summer is here, so I’m going to put my best foot forward in this challenge!

I do come back bearing gifts though! I have a FREEbie printable that you can download for a construction theme in your classroom or at home. There are 20 word cards featuring construction tools. This is a “write the room” activity with 3 differentiated writing sheets. The writing sheets are 2 different styles of lines and 1 with the images of the tools.

Creation

Last night was the first night back to class. I was excited to meet my new kiddos and get back to religious education.

I always start with creation because well, that’s where we started. So much time is spent on rules, what’s expected, homework, prayers, and so on, that the lesson needs to be fairly simple. I break creation down over a couple of lessons and classes. Yesterday, I read the story of creation to them from the Bible. I stop after each day to review what was created that day.

Then, we did a cut & paste worksheet that I made for class. It’s a mat that has each day and what was created on it. So they start off by coloring what was created each day.

Next, we cut out all the different days.

Then, we glued them onto the mat and placed them in their boxes.

Here’s the final project!!

creation-6 — So happy with our first project!

The kids had a blast!! I have a freebie for you, so that your kids can have a blast as well. If you click on the image below, you can download the simple color version of this project. I hope that the kids enjoy!!

Also, this project is available for purchase in my shop. It’s available in color and black & white, plus it has a little bit “fancier” borders on the mat. If you’re interested in purchasing this creation activity worksheet, please just click here to view this exclusive item or just click below to add it to your cart.

NOTE: This is the Catholic version based on the New American Standard (Revised Edition). This is the Bible that I use in my classroom….

A Christmas Present

I have something special, just for you my readers. I wanted to give you a present this year for following along and putting up with my sporadic posts and everything else!!

This is a 4-page coloring book for the nativity. It focuses on Luke 2 and Matthew 2. It’s just a small book….well, it’s more like pages, to tell the real story of Christmas. The focus of these pages are geared toward Catholic, as I used the New American Standard Bible (NASB). Any faith surely can use it though!!

If you’re interested in these coloring pages, please just….

I hope that you can use it in your classroom, homeschool, or for religious education. If you do, please be sure to leave me a comment and let me know!!
