The lesson “Fruits of the Spirit – Kindness, Goodness, Meekness, Self-Control” teaches children about the fruits of the Spirit, specifically focusing on the feelings of love, joy, peace, and patience. Using four different fruits to assemble a fruit salad together, the children will discuss what it means to exhibit each of the “fruits” in their own lives. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 9-11 years, and is the 31st lesson in the 1st Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “God Created Me in His Image” unit.
