This product contains everything you need to help students create a Stations of the Cross Presentation. The students will be expected to create a 14 slide PowerPoint Presentation reflecting on the 14 Stations.

Includes a Word Document & PDF of the following:

~Stations of the Cross Presentation Expectations: This document can be handed out to students when the project is assigned. It covers the expectations for the project, as well as a small rubric so they can see how the project will be graded.

~Stations of the Cross Outline: I would copy this onto the back of the Expectations worksheet. It will remind the students of the order of the stations. There are bible verses for each station. Most of the verses tell the story of that particular station. Some verses were selected as a reflection on the station.

~Stations of the Cross Bible Verses: I would print these two pages as a front/back worksheet for the students to use as a prewriting exercise. They will be asked to read the scripture verses and write a short summary and reflection of the station before they get on the computer.

~Stations of the Cross Rubric: This can be used to grade the presentations. Feel free to change the point values as you see fit for your class.

Also includes a PowerPoint Presentation with the following:

~Expectations for the presentations

~An example and explanation of the ACTS prayer format

~Small version of the rubric
