Month of the Rosary- Editable and Sharable Activities to Send Home

October is the month of the Rosary, so it's a perfect opportunity to share this beautiful prayer with our kids and students. Rather than just pull out a Rosary and start reciting the prayers, I think we need to slow down and first share with them the why and the how and the meaning behind this tradition. With that knowledge, its much more likely the Rosary, whether prayed completely or a decade at a time, will impact kids and help them know the major stories from the life of Christ.

If you are teaching in the classroom, some of these printables or links hopefully will help you as you pray together with your students. If you are teaching virtually or providing support for at-home catechesis, this schedule is ready to email and provides guidance for how to learn about the Rosary. All of the linked printables and videos are free to access. I'm sharing three versions of the schedule- one that is date specific to October 2020, one that is just broken down by a four week period, and one that is editable and can be used how ever you like.

Click here for a schedule of activities with dates marked for the four weeks in October:

Click here for a printable with all the prayers of the Rosary:
If you print two sided, cut in half horizontally, stack, fold, and staple, you've got an easy little mini book.
If you can't print two sided, just cut all the cards apart, stack, and staple.


Click here for a set of cards with all the Mysteries and where to find them in the Bible:
If you cut this page in quarters, they will fit just right with the Rosary prayers mini book above.

Our Lady of the Rosary, Pray for us!

  3. Hi, Katie. I love this and will use it with my own children! I noticed that the links for the Mysteries Cards and some other links that reference the mystery cards in the grid are linked incorrectly. Thank you for this wonderful resource . . . again :) - Laura G.

  6. Hi, Katie!
    When I try to click on the booklet, the link is not a download or printable. I'm thinking the links aren't linked correctly? I'm not very techy, so I could be way off. May God bless you abundantly for so graciously sharing your beautiful creations with us!
