The Ascension Day meaning can be found in the Bible in the book of Luke. After Easter, Jesus is on earth for 40 days. Throughout this time, he sees the disciples several times. The disciples are overjoyed that He has returned and could now be an earthly king. Yet, Jesus has greater plans. He blesses the disciples and returns to heaven. The disciples continue to worship and praise God with great joy. However, students often need more reinforcement to remember this lesson. A verbal and visual summary of this Bible story helps them remember this important event after Easter. Do you need an Ascension Day lesson plan to help your students learn about the events on that day?
