3 I know Jesus THE WELCOME Welcome each child as they arrive. Hello. I m glad you are here! Come open the Treasure Chest to find today s treasure. Child unlocks the Treasure Chest to receive a stamp or sticker of a rooster or a feather. Today, you will hear why a rooster can remind you to tell others you know Jesus. Our Whisper Verse is I know Jesus. Teach the Whisper Verse in spoken language and in sign language below. We call it the Whisper Verse so you can whisper it to others.* SIGN LANGUAGE: I know Jesus. (For visual demonstrations, see Each time we say today s Whisper Verse, let s say it with three hand motions: I know Jesus. Point to self. Touch all four fingertips to forehead. The middle finger of one hand touches the middle of the palm of the other hand, then the same is repeated using the middle finger of the other hand. This action indicates the wounds in Jesus hands after He was nailed to the cross. Allow children to enjoy free play until everyone has arrived. Let s sing the Clean Up Song as we put toys away before Praise Time. Praise any child who helps. Allow several minutes for clean up. Clean Up Song : Clean up! Clean up! Everybody, everywhere! Clean up! Clean up! Everybody do your share! Gather and seat children in Praise Time area. *Today s Whisper Verse: I know Jesus, John 7:29. The Whisper Verse is a tool to help the children learn a major point in the lesson. It is coupled with sign language or hand motions as a memory aid. The verse is not necessarily chosen from today s Bible story. Page 3 of 10
4 Jesus as the King who loves THE WORSHIP Teacher Tip: To help children identify time set aside for worship, designate a special corner or area for singing, collecting offering, and watching the worship illustration. Play It s Praise Time! as children move to that designated area. It s Praise Time our time to sing praise to King Jesus who loves us. He loves us so much He gave His life for us on the cross. That s why every time I see a cross, I remember how much Jesus loves you and me. Raise your hand if you know Jesus loves you. (Children respond.) Sing: Jesus Loves Me. We love Him because He first loved us. Let sing our Bible Memory Verse Song together. Sing: We Love. When we sing praises and give our offerings, we are showing Jesus we know Him and love Him. Let s do that now by giving our offering. Play: Oh, How I Love Jesus as background music while collecting the offering. Delbert and Lello tell others they know and love Jesus, too. Let s check out what they are doing today. Perform The Adventures of Delbert and Lello puppet script or read storybook: Kings & Kingdoms Unit 3, Lesson 17. Jesus loves to hear us tell others we know Him. Do you remember the Whisper Verse? Review Whisper Verse together: I know Jesus. Include sign language. Let s see how well you know Jesus! Raise your hand if you know Jesus hears your prayers. (Children respond.) Now, raise your hand if you know Jesus is in heaven watching over you. (Children respond.) Raise your hand if you know Jesus has done many miracles. (Children respond.) Sing: I Will Remember. That s wonderful. You really know Jesus! As we hear our Bible story, we will get to know Jesus even more! Page 4 of 10
5 Peter says he doesn t know Jesus THE WORD Teacher Tip: Make the Crowing Rooster in Craft Connection before doing Watch the Word. As you tell the story, lead the children in making their roosters crow when the rooster in the story crows. Before we begin our Bible Time, let s say our Classroom Promise with the motions. With my eyes on my teacher; My mouth quiet as can be, I will listen to hear, How God loves you and me. Point to eyes. Place index finger over mouth as quiet sign. Cup hand around ear. Hug self, point to others and then self. Last time, we heard how Jesus prayed in the garden. Today, we will learn that after Jesus prayed in the garden, Peter lied and said he did not know Jesus. Handle Bible as a special treasure, leaving it open to Luke 22: WATCH THE WORD: LUKE 22:54-62 Read the points below or retell the passage in your own words using the points below as a general guide. To illustrate the story, hold a Crowing Rooster craft sample or toy rooster. Other visual options include Color This Story or any related picture. Jesus never did anything wrong, But one night some men took Him away. Peter followed and stood nearby, He remembered what Jesus did say. Peter, you ll say you don t know Me Three times, then, the rooster will crow. And sure enough Peter said it three times; Just as Jesus had told Him so. I don t know Jesus, Peter lied. Three times Peter shook his head, No! Then the third time Peter said it, He heard the rooster crow. Did Peter say he knew Jesus? (No.) Let s find our answer in the Bible. Read Luke 22:56-57 from teacher s Bible. What can we tell others about Jesus? (We know Jesus.) Our Whisper Verse tells us the answer. Let s say it together: I know Jesus. Include sign language or hand motions. Page 5 of 10
6 Telling others we know Jesus THE WAY Teacher Tip: Craft and games can be presented at the same time in different areas or one at a time depending on class size and teaching style. CRAFT: CROWING ROOSTER Purpose: To tell others we know Jesus. Supplies: Red, yellow, or white plastic cups*; 3 inch pieces of sponge or cloth; heavy string; water; yellow felt or sturdy paper; feathers, felt or tissue paper for decoration; wiggle eyes (may substitute eye or dot stickers or use a marker to draw eyes); tape or glue; crayons or markers *Cup must be plastic or craft will not make crowing sound. If plastic cups are not available, make an alternate craft by tracing the shape of a rooster on white paper and gluing on scraps of sturdy colored paper to create a colorful paper rooster. Prepare: 1. Cut 12-inch pieces of butcher s string or heavy gauge string. 2. Cut a 2-inch triangle from sturdy, yellow felt or paper for the rooster s beak. 3. Pre-punch or drill three pencil-sized holes in the base of the plastic cup. 4. Put string through both holes in bottom of cup from the outside. Make one end long and one short. 5. Tie the ends together as far inside the cup as you can. Before the knot is tight, you can use a finger to push the knot further inside the cup. 6. Trim off the short string. 7. Tie sponge to long end of string. Trim off excess string. 1. Attach rooster s beak and eyes to cup. 2. Decorate cup using feathers, felt and/or tissue paper. 3. Dampen sponge or cloth and squeeze out excess water. 4. Holding the plastic cup in one hand, pinch the top of string with the damp sponge or cloth and drag the sponge or cloth down along the string to make a crowing sound. Craft Discussion: Who remembers the Whisper Verse? ( I know Jesus. ) Let s say it together with the hand motions. Who said he did not know Jesus? (Peter.) How many times did Peter say he did not know Jesus? (Three times.) What crowed after Peter said he did not know Jesus? (A rooster.) Have you ever seen a rooster? Can you crow like a rooster? Allow several children to demonstrate crowing like a rooster. Let s make our Crowing Roosters crow, too! Lead children in making their rooster crafts crow as described in the directions above. Page 6 of 10
7 THE WAY continued GAME: THE ROOSTERS CROW Purpose: This game will help children interact with the story and practice telling others about Jesus. Supplies: Crowing Rooster crafts Peter lied because he was afraid to say he knew Jesus. What should Peter have said about Jesus?

When I clap my hands three times, stop crowing and tell a friend, I know Jesus. 1. Children walk around room creating crowing noises with their roosters. 2. When you clap three times, the children should stop the crowing noises, turn to another child and say, I know Jesus! 3. Repeat several times. GAME: DROP THE FEATHER Purpose: For children to practice telling others about Jesus. Supplies: Feather Who knows Jesus? (Children respond.) Let s all raise our hands because Jesus is our friend!

When the feather touches the floor, lead the children in jumping up and saying I know Jesus loves me! 5. Let each child take a turn dropping the feather. Change what the children will tell each other each time. Some of the statements you could use are: I know Jesus is the Lord! I know Jesus is our King! I know Jesus does miracles! I know Jesus is God s Son! I know Jesus hears my prayers! I know Jesus is in heaven! Page 7 of 10

Choose a child to demonstrate motions to Whisper Verse: I know Jesus. Who said he did not know Jesus? (Peter.) Did Peter know Jesus? (Yes.) What should Peter have said? (I know Jesus.) Peter could have told others about Jesus. Today s snack is an egg. What bird that crows comes from an egg? (A rooster.) When did the rooster crow in today s story? (After Peter lied three times saying he did not know Jesus.) We know Jesus and we can tell others about Jesus! We can tell them our Whisper Verse. Let s say it again right now!
