The Middler Chapter 1
I wasn’t going to post any story time videos this week as it is Holy Week. However, I have had emails from parents saying that you are missing them. I have decided to read a chapter book to you all. This is a long story but a very good one. It is Mrs Tibbits book that she has lent to me and I really enjoyed reading it. I have put the pages on to the video so you can see what I am reading. At the end of each video I will explain the main parts so you can understand it a bit better. Here is part 1:
Star of the Week 09.04.20
Congratulations Thomas!
Maundy/Holy Thursday
Today is called Maundy Thursday or Holy Thursday. It is a special day as Jesus had his last meal before he died. He knew he was going to die but his twelve disciples did not. Jesus was Jewish so they had a special celebration meal together called The Passover Meal. Watch the video below.
Questions
Why did Jesus’ disciples not want them to wash their feet?
Jesus came to serve us. What does that mean?
Challenge
Can you draw a picture of Jesus and his twelve disciples eating The Passover Meal? Write underneath what happened at the meal.

Holy Wednesday
Matthew 26:14-16 New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, “What will you give me if I betray him to you?” They paid him thirty pieces of silver. 16 And from that moment he began to look for an opportunity to betray him.
Today we think about when Judas decided to betray Jesus. This is a sad time as Judas was one of Jesus’ twelve disciples, a close friend. He wanted to hurt Jesus for 30 pieces of silver (money). He made the choice today.
We need to think about our choices today.
Questions
What would you do for 30 pounds?
Would you hurt your friend for a new toy?
What makes you happier, new things or friends?
Challenge
Can you write a prayer to God asking Him to help you give up things you want but don’t always need? We should always think about things that we have extra of, to give to those who do not have enough of what they need.
Don’t forget to keep emailing me your work, or commenting with your answers, so that I can choose a Star of the Week this week!
