Getting ready

Age & adult help

Following several illustrated panels and reading speech or story text adds a literacy demand to the colouring.

Read panels aloud and help children follow their order. Check the story and wording before using it with younger children.

What you’ll need

Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons. An adult reader may be helpful for younger children.

Time & preparation

One comic page, including colouring. Shared reading and discussion are additional.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.

Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.

Printing tips

The story behind the craft

Bible passage: Exodus 3:1–15

Moses sees a bush burning without being consumed. God calls him by name, hears the suffering of the Israelites and sends Moses to Pharaoh, promising to be with him.

Main takeaway: God hears suffering and calls Moses to help bring freedom.

While you colour the panels

Read the panels in order, pausing at a change in a character’s action or understanding.

Pause at the bush, God’s call and Moses’ questions. Compare Moses’ fear with God’s promise to be with him.

Younger learners can describe an action in one panel. Older learners can compare a caption with its Bible passage and discuss what a short comic leaves out.

Questions to explore

  • What was unusual about the bush?

Common questions

What files are included in this download?

The download is a 1-page PDF: MosesandtheBurningBush.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.

Printed captions include “God speaks to Moses and tells him to take off his sandals” and “Moses sees a bush that is on fire but not burning up”.
