A Jesse Tree For Advent

A Jesse Tree For Advent by Rachel Nicholls is published by Kevin Mayhew and is our 11186th best seller. The ISBN for A Jesse Tree For Advent is 9781848670440.

A Jesse Tree for Advent provides 15 assemblies to take you through the school days of Advent, each based on a character from the Jesse Tree. There is also a Christmas assembly. Each outline includes:

• a description of the symbol to hang on your tree
• a story about the biblical character
• a suggestion for further reflection
• a prayer

There are ideas for creating a two or three-dimensional Jesse Tree, as well as five suggestions of projects or individuals for further study and links to other curriculum areas. An additional resource called ‘Links to the Modern World’ emphasises that although the Jesse Tree stories come from the distant past, they are still relevant today.

A Jesse Tree for Advent is a wonderful resource for the season of Advent, providing a visual focus for the school and setting the Christmas story in a wider context.
