When I asked my Sunday school students about their fathers day gift ideas or unique presentation ideas for the next week, I got the best idea from my 9-year old student named Nicole. She suggested that they write a short poem, about 2-4 stanzas, about their personal thoughts of their fathers. Having considered the idea, I told them to start writing and have some assistant teachers help them. These poems will be read before they sing an inspirational fathers day song we have practiced. After collecting the poems, I and my assistant teachers arranged and edited them. We then compiled the final revision and selected 6 students who will read two lines each before the special number.
