John 3: Nicodemus

The Book of John chapter study is designed for older students with some worksheets and printables that correspond for younger students so they can be used in classes with several ages together or used specifically for an event that is in the chapter.

Most of the worksheets have the teacher's answer sheets included, and some are in color and black & white.

The 3-D scene is super easy to prepare and fun for the kids and can be used as a visual, too! Color and black & white are both included.

To create the 3-D scene, fold the scene in half. Cut on dotted lines. Fold bottom on gray line forward. Fold the top forward on top gray line. Fold backward on the inside line. This can be printed on p aper or cardstock. The people will work best if printed on cardstock. Cut the people on the solid lines and fold on the dotted lines.

Cut the 4 extra pictures and 2 and fold in half. Glue a craft stick in the center to discuss Jesus’ discussion with Nicodemus.

To make the Flip Book, cut on the dotted line to separate the top from bottom. Cut the bottom pictures out on solid line. Layer in order and staple as shown on the gray rectangle. Fold the Foldable Book in half lengthwise, then fold in page 3, then fold the front cover on the line. The Spinner and Foldable Book are in color and black & white. The Flip Book and Spinner work best if printed on cardstock or heavier paper. 

The first worksheet is a fill in the blank. Instead of numbering these 1, 2, 3, etc., they are numbered with the verse to read first, then fill in the blanks using the Word Bank. The second was designed for those asking for cut & glue. It is an easy scripture to cut out the words and glue them in order. The students will also write out the verse. This was a suggestion from a teacher. A color by number is included. The next is a word search and crossword puzzle. The shape words have words from the text which the students will look at the (letter) shapes and fill in the blanks. The write about it has four pictures with spaces for the student to write about what they read and remember. There is a number code and alphabet code worksheet. 

For God so loved the world, He gave His only Son, whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

These printables can be used for this lesson and any other appropriate lesson and were kept plain intentionally for this purpose. A key verse was chosen from the chapter to use for discussion, memory work, and copy work. Students can color or paint the designs on the banner, poster, door hanger and bookmark. Stickers can be added. String or ribbon can be added to the banner to hang and on the bookmark.
