This Disciples of Jesus post has
several printable choices. There is an interactive bulletin board that can be
used with the Lapbook, File Folder Game, or two-sided worksheet. The posters
for the bulletin board can also be used for visuals for the lesson. Some of the
downloads also include the Apostles.
The Disciples are the helpers that Jesus picked. Disciple means follower. (Apostle means one who is sent.) Jesus picked
12 men to follow Him. If we follow the list that Luke has in Luke 6:12-15, they are in this
order:(Mathew 9:9) Jesus was walking and He saw a man named (7) Matthew sitting in a tax office. Jesus told Matthew to "Follow Me", and Matthew stood up and followed Jesus!
Sorry, most are not shown.
This is a basic Fill-in-the-Blank double sided worksheet that can be used on it's own, or with the bulletin board below. I added a line below each Disciple as a divider and can also be used to write more information. Click here to print it.
The students used the Disciples file Folder Game you see below. I printed and put together one for each child, and as I was teaching the lesson, I added the 'About Me' cards to the bulletin board with each Disciple. They found their cards and laid the correct 'About Me' cards on each Disciple, then took the file folder games home. Even though I posted this set some time ago, this was what I planned to use with this class. This bulletin board is designed to be used with the above Fill-in-the -Blank worksheet, the file folder game and/or the lapbook you see below.
The posters have been updated, corrected, etc.
The lapbook has been updated. The pictures have been cleaned up and corrected and the basic look has been updated. The students will lift the flap and write the facts about each person.

I also had these visuals set up on a
table to reinforce the facts about each Disciple. I started with the Galilee Boat and set it on fleece to
look like water and added the fish for the fishermen. I added the scales for Matthew, the tree for
Bartholomew, and the money bag for Judas Iscariot. You can print the name tags here.

If you do not want to purchase the
Galilee Boat with the Disciples, bit would like to have a display, you could
print these Disciples that Nina Smith gave me permission to share with you. Click here for the download and
directions. Thanks again for sharing them, Nina!
