Matthew Chapters 19 and 20
Map Work
In Chapter 19 Jesus is leaving the area of Galilee, which direction is He going (N, S, E or W)? The scripture say that He "went beyond the Jordan River", so we will place Him at Jericho. How many miles would He and the disciples have to travel?
For an extra project or challenge for the older children you might want to have them make a map of the Galilee region and mark all the places Jesus has traveled until now, showing arrows starting from where He began after His wilderness experience. For the younger children, draw a map for them, placing a picture of a house near the name of the city and let them color it. You may also point out certain cities and tell them which color you want them to be.
