Teacher Script

Introduction
Hi everyone, good morning! Today we’re going to learn about a parable in the Bible called the Parable of the Talents.

Discussion
Let’s discuss what we learned. God gives us all different talents and abilities. Just like some students are good at drawing and others are better at painting, God gives different people different talents. Can you give some examples of talents that God gives people? (Discuss the answers with the students).

Activity
Now, let’s create something to show how we can use our talents for God! I will provide you with materials to create a drawing or write a short story.
(Distribute materials and allow the students to create their artwork or write their stories).
Once you’re finished, let’s share our creations with the class. Who would like to come up first and tell us about their talent and how they can use it for God?

Conclusion
Today, we learned that God gives each of us special talents and abilities. The Parable of the Talents teaches us that we should use our talents for God’s glory.
Remember, no matter what your talent is, you can use it to help others and make the world a better place. So how can you use your talents to serve God today?
Thank you for your participation!
