This week’s Kindergarten Bible Study is about the story of Joseph. This is Lesson 8 in our Kindergarten Bible Study- My Bible Book for this school year. See Lesson 7 here.
This week our study was based on Joseph from the Bible. We also read the flashcard as we’ve been doing. After doing this, we worked on her writing the sentences out. She then drew some pictures to describe each scenario.
Her pictures this week were the moon, color bubbles, money and someone dreaming. The moon to represent at night is when people dream most, color bubbles to represent all the beautiful colors in Joseph’s coat, money to show he was sold and paid for and a dreaming person.
Making the connections…
I recommend My Take Along Bible for the little ones, because I truly believe it laid a strong foundation in my own child’s mind about some of the stories in the Bible (Now that she is older we read The Jesus Storybook Bible a lot now). I was pleasantly surprised that now that we are studying money, she was able to make the connection that his brothers chose money over their brother, while having an idea of the correct coin sizes.
We really enjoyed this week study because we watch Prince of Egypt & Joseph: King of Dreams a lot! So she’s pretty familiar with the story of Joseph. 🙂
For the event that you may want to re-create this study with your little one, I have detailed it out, leaving the links to the clip art printouts we used from the internet.

See you again next week for Lesson 9. Have a blessed weekend:-)
Additional Notes:
- Use a good glue stick. I love the dollar tree. Unfortunately, those don’t work well for this to last long-term. And liquid glue is too messy. I am ordering some.
- I help her stick the photos unto the page to ensure room for our copy work.
- If my little one needs help in forming letters she might be struggling with or new symbols like commas, I am there to assist (with my coffee
). - I only do Bible study and her Brain Quest workbook as a more ‘structured’ form of learning on Mondays. This Bible study handles writing also, plus it’s a lot.
- You do not have to use the flashcards. I used them because I already owned them from a prior dollar tree purchase.
- The sentences are not exactly word for word from the flashcards. Most I have rephrased in easier words for her to understand.
