Prior to class: Place a variety of objects on the “Prayer Table” related to that evening’s vocabulary/concepts/lesson. Ask the students to name something that they see on the table and reinforce what they know about it. Try to relate it to the topic of the evening.
Activity: At the beginning of each class, gather students around the Prayer Table. Ask each student to state a petition, intercession, thanksgiving, praise for the week. This helps children hear the prayers of their peers, and to recognize that they are not alone. End by praying a traditional prayer, such as a Hail Mary and/or Our Father.
“This Prayer Table activity seemed to bring the class together, reinforce what they already knew and shared, and encourage them to learn more about our Catholic Faith. The best piece of advice regarding prayer … Prayer is portable! You can pray anytime, anywhere, alone or with others.” – Loretta Macaluso, Catechist in the Diocese of Covington
