What part made you laugh? What did you learn about the characters in the story? Who was your favorite character?  Was there a problem in the story? How was it solved? These are the kinds of questions to ask yourself when you are getting ready to write about what you have read.

Activity: You learned that Jesus is the Light of the World. He died and rose for us so now we can be the Light of Christ to others. We do this by praying and doing acts of kindness to others.

Hang the picture on your refrigerator or in your room.
