School Wise

At school you have lots of decisions about what to say and how to act. See if you can get through a day at school without making any detours.

• Cut out or make a copy of the paragraphs on page 25, glue them to colored paper, and cut them into cards. You will need a bean or coin for each player to use as a marker, a set of scriptures, and a die. • Place the cards face down in the middle of the playing board. Let the youngest player go first by rolling a die and moving that number of squares. • When someone lands on a “Time to Decide” square, have someone choose a card and read it out loud. With the other players, think of how you think Jesus would want you to act. • When someone lands on a square with a scripture on it, look up the scripture and have someone read it. Tell the group how you think that scripture could help you make good decisions at school.
