About this unit

This early elementary grade unit study will help your children to learn about Advent 2 and why we celebrate it. You and your child(ren) or students will explore the lesson using hands on activities and worksheets.

I have suggested several books for your studies and there are a ton of great resources online as well. You can also find many educational videos and resources out there for free.

Along with the worksheets provided, I've suggested a few projects, such as making a baptism sensory bin, a Nativity folder craft, some vocabulary words, copy work and a letter B page depending on the needs of your learner.

It will take about a week to complete this unit – but it can easily be condensed down to one day if you want to do everything in one day. You could also use all or part of it for a Children's Chapel or Children's Church or Sunday School lesson.
