Day 3: K2nd
Lets play a little game and see if we can look at something and tell whether it will
sink or float.
[TEACHERS: This is a great demonstration that all the kids will love. To do this, you will
need to bring from home a clear plastic tub that you will fill half way with water. Then
choose from the following items the things you already have at home that you could use
in this demonstration.]
Day 3: K2nd
Before dropping an item into the water, ask the kids to tell you whether it will sink
or float. Drop the item in and discuss the results. As you take each item from the
water, put all the sinkable items in one pile and all the floatable items in another.
Show the students your picture of the ark laid out on the football field and the

TEACH IT! (Bible Lesson Room)
[The Bible lesson will be taught in a large room by grade level. See schedule for
time and location. The information below is for use for general discussion, Huddle
Groups, crafts and review questions.]
God had told Adam and Eve the punishment for their disobedience would be death.
Because the people who lived on the earth before the Flood would not repent, God
had to punish them. He did so by sending the Flood. These persons were separated
from God forever.
Even there in the Garden, God had referred to One who would come one day and
crush Satans head. That is a reference to Jesus. Yet even before Jesus came, the
only way of salvation was through faiththe faith Noah demonstrated.
He trusted God so much that he was willing to suffer ridicule and scorn from others
as he began to build the huge ship that would save him and his family. His whole
family had to trust in what God was telling them to do.
(Show the poster with Noah inside the ark and the cross printed on the door.) The
ark itself became a symbol of salvation. God planned it, and all Noah and his family
had to do was to trust that His plan would work, and they would be saved.
Thats all you need to do todayTRUST GODand believe that what Jesus did on
the Cross was for you!
Share the ABCs of salvation and invite any children to speak with you about their
salvation.
