When you have finished maiking them, take them outside and watch them move in the wind.

Can you paint a picture of them? Think about how you can make them look like they are moving.

In a group, make some windy music using percussion instruments. Take it in turn to dance to the music, showing that you are being blown by the wind.
Make paper plate masks to show the disciples before Pentecost - when they were frightened, sad and lonely - and after Pentecost - when they were brave, happy and strong.
Look at a group of candles burning in the classroom. Write a class poem about flames. Think about how the flames of Pentecost brought change to the disciples.
