“Trustworthiness is the greatest portal leading unto the tranquillity and security of the people." Baháʼu'lláh

Let us start our lesson saying some prayers and continue to work on memorizing "O my Lord! O my Lord! I am a child of tender years."

“Trustworthiness is the greatest portal leading unto the tranquillity and security of the people ."

word Games

Let's use the interactive Word Games Page to learn the meaning of the words in the quote and help with memorizing it.

Make a friendship bracelet

What does it mean to be a true friend? Is it sticking with your friend through the good times and the bad? Is it accepting them just the way they are and not trying to change them. Is it celebrating thier success and cheering them on to achieve greater things? It is all of these things and more.

Here is an opportunity to learn a new skill and share your creation with a friend. The bracelet can be a symbol of your honesty, trustworthiness and loyalty to your friend.

The blind man

Divide the students into pairs. Blindfold one child in each pair and have the other child lead him or her around, making sure that he or she does not stumble along the way. For an added challenge, the blindfolded child can be guided around obstacles, such as tree trunks, ditches, rocks, and tires. To increase your student’s capacity for giving and receiving instructions, the blindfolded child can be guided through verbal instructions alone. In the case, the guide should follow close by to catch the child in case he or she stumbles.

As an alternative to the above game, the students can all be blindfold and form a train, led by you or one of the children.
