Zacchaeus Bible Baseball Game Idea
My class is almost all boys. The first week at the end of class we wrestled and then I realized I could use sports as a means to teach. The second week we played baseball. I laminated paper bases and asked the batter a trivia question about the story of Zacchaeus. It was a blast. They picked a card with either one, two, or three bases on it if they answered the question correctly. They learned baseball and loved running the bases and they learned Zacchaeus story details. Questions included things like "What city was Jesus walking through when he encountered Jesus? and How may times did Zacchaeus promise to pay back the people he cheated?
