This product will help you teach your students about the ACTS Prayer format. They will learn about Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication. There are worksheets for added practice, a Speed Sort Activity, and an Adoration Word Cloud project to help students engage with the prayer.

ACTS Prayer Lesson Instructions

Activity “ACTS Prayer Speed Sort” Pages 4-12

**This activity gives the students the opportunity to read examples of each type of prayer. Students can use these cards to sort at their own speed, race against their neighbor, or play any other games that you use in your classroom. There are two versions—simple prayer examples and bible verse examples. The bible verse version is more difficult, and there is also more room for interpretation with the bible verses. Students will have good opportunities to discuss and debate their decisions as they think about the meaning of the verses.

Worksheet “ACTS Prayer Sorting” Page 13

**This worksheet can be used with either version of the Speed Sort. Students can copy down the prayers under each heading to check their work and reinforce the learning.

Worksheet “Acts Prayer Basics” Page 14

Worksheet “Adoration Prayer Practice” Page 15

Worksheet “Write an ACTS Prayer” Page 16

**These three worksheets can be used to assess a student’s understanding of the topics and encourage a deeper understanding particularly of the Adoration Prayer since that is typically the most difficult area for my students.

Project “Adoration Word Cloud” Page 17-18

**Students draw a word cloud using at least 30 words of adoration. The list is primarily names of God, so they can also include other statements of adoration.

**Students should make this look artistic by using different writing styles, colors, and sizes of writing. I usually find examples of word clouds online to give students a visual example of a word cloud. I included a page with a frame to use if wanted, or give students large poster board or cardstock.

Discussion “Quotes About Prayer” Page 19-20

**There are two sets of cards with quotes about prayer. One set is from Mother Teresa, the other from Martin Luther. I use the Mother Teresa set with my Catholic classes, and the Martin Luther set with the Protestant classes. These can be used in various ways, I ask students to read and discuss the meaning of each quote.

Posters “ACTS Prayer” Page 21-30

There is a very basic 1-page poster, as well as a cuter version. There are also posters with sentence starters for students who struggle to remember the format when leading prayer. The last 4 slides are large letters (A, C, T, S) that can be used on the wall to reinforce the acronym.

Who Should Use This Resource: This resource is ideal for religious education teachers, youth group leaders, and catechists who are teaching students about the ACTS Prayer format. It is also useful for homeschool parents who want to provide their children with a structured approach to learning about prayer. With a variety of activities designed to accommodate different learning styles, this resource helps students develop a deeper understanding of Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication.

Enhanced Learning Experience: Incorporating these activities into your lessons not only helps students practice their prayers but also encourages them to engage with the material in a meaningful way. The Speed Sort activity and worksheets provide hands-on learning opportunities, while the Adoration Word Cloud project allows for creative expression. Discussion cards and posters further support students in understanding and remembering the ACTS Prayer format.

Flexible Classroom Application: Whether you are teaching in a classroom setting, a small group, or a homeschool environment, this resource offers flexibility in how you present and reinforce the ACTS Prayer format. The variety of materials ensures that you can adapt the lessons to suit the needs of your students, making prayer education both effective and enjoyable.

Cultivate a heart of gratitude with this thoughtfully designed 30-day challenge devotional resource.  Perfect for classrooms, homeschools, or personal discipleship, this challenge introduces students to biblical principles about thankfulness while helping them develop practical habits of gratitude. Each day features a carefully chosen scripture passage and an engaging theme, encouraging reflection, prayer, and action.  With topics like The Power of Gratitude, A Sacrifice of Praise, and Thankfulness for God’s Provision, students will learn to recognize God’s goodness in every season of life.

This Gratitude 30-Day Challenge resource not only strengthens students’ spiritual foundations but also fosters emotional resilience, humility, and contentment.  It’s an ideal tool for teaching gratitude as both a spiritual discipline and a life skill.  Whether you’re a teacher, homeschool parent, or youth group leader, this challenge equips you with ready-to-use materials that will inspire meaningful growth.

Incorporating a Life of Gratitude in the Home:

Gratitude can transform the atmosphere of a home, fostering joy and unity. Families can create gratitude traditions, such as a “thankfulness jar,” where each family member writes something they are grateful for daily or weekly. Reading the notes together fosters connection and reminds everyone of God’s goodness.  Mealtime prayers can also emphasize thankfulness, encouraging students to reflect on the blessings of the day.  Parents can model gratitude by expressing thankfulness openly and praising God for both big and small moments, setting an example for their children to follow.

Cultivating Gratitude in the Classroom:

Incorporating gratitude into classroom routines can create a positive and encouraging environment.  Teachers can begin each class with a “gratitude moment,” where students share one thing they’re thankful for.  Gratitude journals are another simple yet impactful tool, allowing students to record daily reflections and scripture-based thankfulness.  Group discussions about the day’s devotional themes can also build a supportive classroom culture. Highlighting examples of gratitude from literature, history, or current events connects the concept to real-world applications and inspires students to see gratitude as an actionable part of their lives.

Practicing Gratitude in the Homeschool:

Homeschool settings offer the unique opportunity to weave gratitude into both academic and spiritual lessons.  Students can create gratitude art projects or write thank-you letters to people who have blessed their lives. Families can explore the biblical origins of thankfulness by studying characters in the Bible who demonstrated gratitude during trials, like David, Daniel, and Paul.  Incorporating nature walks or quiet moments of reflection allows students to express gratitude for God’s creation, reinforcing thankfulness as a way to worship.  Homeschool parents can further encourage gratitude by helping their children see God’s hand in their education and everyday life.

BENEFITS FOR TEACHERS/HOMESCHOOL PARENTS:

• Ready-to-Use Resource:  Simplify lesson planning with a complete 30-day challenge featuring daily scriptures and themes.
• Flexible Integration:  Easily adapt the challenge for individual devotionals, group discussions, or journaling activities.
• Engages Students Spiritually:  Encourage meaningful conversations about faith and gratitude.
• Promotes Character Development:  Supports teaching life skills like contentment, humility, and emotional resilience.

BENEFITS FROM STUDENTS:

• Biblical Understanding:  Deepen their knowledge of gratitude as a core biblical principle.
• Emotional Growth:  Learn to use thankfulness as a shield against anxiety and negativity.
• Personal Reflection:  Daily prompts encourage prayer, journaling, and practical action.
• Faith in Action:  Discover how gratitude transforms relationships, attitudes, and their outlook on life.

The Gratitude 30-Day Challenge is more than just a devotional—it’s a lifestyle guide that equips students, teachers, and homeschool parents to make thankfulness a cornerstone of their daily lives.  By intentionally incorporating gratitude into homes, classrooms, and homeschools, this resource encourages lasting spiritual growth and joy.  A life rooted in gratitude not only brings glory to God but also creates a ripple effect, positively impacting relationships, communities, and the world.
