If Jesus Came to My House Lapbook Printables

Front Cover House
Cut around three sides of the windows and doors to create flaps. Mount on a blank piece of paper (so there is drawing space under the flaps). Encourage your child to illustrate scenes from the story or to draw his own version of what he would do if Jesus came to his house.

Shadow Matching Matchbooks
Assemble the matchbooks. Ask your student to find the shadows. Paste them inside the books.

Letter H Wheel
Emphasize the letter H throughout the week. What sound does H make? What words start with H? Images for the wheel include: hair, hand, hammer, hat, hotdog, horse, hippo, and hamburger.

You may want to grab a laundry basket and walk around your house looking for things that being with the letter H.

JOY (side by side book)
Sing the song and discuss the ways you can put Jesus and others before yourselves.
