About this resource
What's inside this resource
This is The Lord's Prayer Craft.
There are 3 different versions of the prayer included.
You will cut-out the strips and place them on the Lord’s Prayer template to create your own copy. Use the numbers to help place each part on the correct line.
I teach this Prayer in 1 week to the Kindergarten.
Each day we learn a new part or stanza, cut it out and then glue it to the template.
I teach it this way in order to explain the meaning behind each part of the prayer.
In the classroom
Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Students can arrange the numbered stanzas of the Lord's Prayer in their correct sequence using the matching template.
Students can identify which version of the prayer (Paraphrased ASV, Catholic, or Traditional) they are assembling, based on its wording.
Teaching tips
Spread the craft across a week, as the file's own teacher note describes: introduce and glue one new stanza each day rather than the whole prayer at once.
Print the blank template on colored cardstock, or on white cardstock if students should color or decorate the finished piece afterward.
Rely on the numbering printed on both the strips and the template — the teacher note explains it was added specifically to keep young students from gluing a stanza in the wrong spot.
Post one of the three included finished copies in the classroom as a reference students can check their own assembled version against.
Skills covered
Sequencing and fine-motor assembly — cutting numbered stanza strips and gluing each into its matching numbered spot on the template.
Multi-day project follow-through — building the full prayer craft in daily stages over a week, matching the included teacher note's structure.
Text version comparison — recognizing wording differences among the Paraphrased ASV, Catholic, and Traditional versions, such as 'forgive our sins' versus 'forgive us our trespasses.'
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
How many versions of the prayer are included, and how do they differ?
Three — Paraphrased ASV, Catholic, and Traditional — each with slightly different wording, such as 'forgive our sins' versus 'forgive us our trespasses' versus 'forgive us our debts.'
What are the three finished copies used for?
They're ready-to-print, one per version, meant to be posted in the classroom or used as a completed model for students assembling their own copy.
