Create Posters for the Beatitudes

This exercise leads to many new ideas. The students in the 6th grade class made posters for the Beatitudes. The posters help them remember and understand each Beatitude.

Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness sake: for they shall be filled

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you , and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
