The colored and cut out a picture of Mother Mary and St. Gabriel. Teachers helped them tape the cut outs onto popsicle sticks. I read about the Annunciation from Sacred Scripture, and had the children hold up Our Lady each time they heard the name "Mary", and hold up St. Gabriel every time they heard his name, or the word "Angel". The children seemed to really enjoy this.
The older classes reviewed the beginning of Chapter 7 from Know Your Mass and then finished learning about the Offertory. I then discussed the Annunciation with them as well, and they completed various work. The oldest class did a crossword puzzle and this seemed to be a big hit!
