Teacher Resources
Here are a few examples of activities suitable
for elementary school level children. More activites can
be found at the teacher vocation activity page.
Celebrate Earth
Day annually on April 22
Students can use the Earth
Day Activity Sheet to make a collage. They should color
the pictures on the worksheet, cut them out, and glue them
in any order on a piece of construction paper, leaving space
in between the pictures. On the days leading up to Earth Day,
read one Scripture passage summary from the Earth
Day Scripture Sheet. Then ask students to write a word
by the picture for that day that describes something God created
for us and our planet. Each Scripture passage has to do with
God's call to live good and holy lives.
Hatville
This worksheet puts students into the imaginary town of Hatville, where everyone
must wear a hat that tells something about the person wearing it. Your students
draw a line from the clue to the correct hat each person is wearing. For a reproducible

Worksheet
God’s
Design CD-ROM
Interative CD-ROM will introduce your students to
the vocations angel Gabe. Children can visit Kids’ Corner
to play a simple memory game using common religious
symbols, set an altar table the way a priest or acolyte
would set it for Mass, color pages you can print
out and duplicate, and use the story of “The
Adventures of Gabe” for a themed show-and-tell.
Information Central contains lesson plans and printouts.

I Can Find
My Way Lesson Plans
25 laminated lesson plans for primary students are
arranged in five units. In each unit, lessons can
be used alone or in a series (for example, during
National Vocation Awareness Week in January). Plans
for a Celebration Day and an Activity Day make the
lessons come alive!
