How Much Do You Know About Sacramentals? Our F3 Folder Lesson Will Help You Find Out

Inside of our F3 Folder on Sacramentals

 Our Flip, Flap & Fold (F3) Folder helps teach about sacramentals at home or in the CCD or religion classroom.

What do a plastic rosary, a stone church, a fifteen foot tall wooden crucifix, and a tiny paper prayer card all have in common?  If you guessed that they are all sacramentals, then you are absolutely correct. 

If you aren't too familiar with sacramentals in general or you are not sure about their purposefulness and importance, then you definitely won't want to miss today's special resource that teaches about the sacramentals used in the Catholic church.

Outside of our F3 Folder on Sacramentals

Today's resource is our first ever full F3 Folder.  If you are intrigued by lapbooking, but put off by what appears to be lots of prep and effort, then our F3 resources are probably right up your alley.  They are smaller, self-contained lessons with paper pieces inspired by my friend, Shell, of Thinking Love, No Twaddle blog, who makes and shares with us lovely little lessons that contain everything you need to effectively deliver them to your kiddos.  This keeps the learning focus on the lesson and concepts and not so much the prepping and making of the project pieces.

And if you have ever wanted to incorporate file folder projects into a classroom or group setting, say your CCD class or religious education co-op lessons, but just weren't sure how, then you'll definitely want to download today's free resource.

To show you just how easy it is to use this five page printable resource, watch our short video that explains how to create and use this fun and very do-able resource in your little homeschool or classroom.

We hope you find this resource very useful and fun to use.  We hope to share more F3 Folder lessons if we find families really enjoy using them.

Sacramentals Themed Oversized Wall Calendar

New Over sized Wall Calendar for Year Round Use Focusing on Sacramentals

We are so excited to be able to offer this new wall calendar.  This is a great way to teach children and those new to the faith about sacramentals and the things that really make our Catholic Faith rich and unique.  We created this for our upcoming CCD classroom as we teach Sacramental prep for First Holy Communion and First Reconciliation.  We will also have one of these in our home as well.

This calendar is interactive as it asks the questions "What or What am I?" for each day of the month.  Monthly headers are provided for the entire year so that this calendar can be used during any liturgical season or month of the year.  This really is a great teaching tool.  Answers for each picture are provided on the last page.  Simply cut out the pieces and affix to your poster board or bulletin board.  See our webpage on our over sized monthly calendars to create your posterboard template.  These are great conversation starters too! :)

We have used much of our own photos for this set and almost every photo is from our parish here in Nanaimo, B.C. We especially want to thank our fellow catechist friend, Lillian, for letting us use her great shots - especially the one for Day 1 and stained glass ones.

As we begin our CCD year planning, we look forward to sharing more faith filled resources with you and your families or classrooms. Many newer resources will not make their way to the full website for a bit so make sure to visit us often so that you don't miss anything.

We hope you find this resource fun and useful.
