I love this resource and use it every year to supplement my curriculum during the season of Advent. My students love having more of a “craft” resource to learn about Advent, rather than learning from textbook and pencil. Last year my students struggled with writing, so I opted for the picture responses. This year my class was stronger with writing, so I opted for the writing option. I loved being able to differentiate.

I was in need of an Advent bulletin board for our front entry and this was perfect! Thank you!

I loved this activity for the Advent season this year. I teach grade 3 and 4 and this resource fit perfectly into my weekly discussions about the Advent season. Students completed the candles as we went through the weeks of Advent and I loved having these on display in my classroom. They look so beautiful! Students also had the opportunity to make thoughtful reflections based on each weekly theme which wrapped up each discussion nicely. Will be definitely using this product with my class next year!
Bethany I. –
This was a wonderful activity for our third grade and kindergarten to do together! The older kids assisted kindergarten in cutting the pieces and each week, they would all glue the flame on together. The third graders, thought deeply about their responses to each writing prompt and were able to gain more meaning from the season of Advent.

We are just beginning to use this resource. I like that it can be used as a progressive bulletin board display. We have some hanging in the classroom at our prayer table and some in the hallway to share with the rest of the school. Thank-you for the faith focused activity that is more than just colouring.
