Teaching about the history of the Missal (web links)
These three resources trace
the history of the Roman Missal from its
inception at the Council of Trent in 1570 to
the present day. The Wikipedia version is
the most detailed. The history provided by
the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)
includes a permission to adapt it for
diocese or parish use if appropriate credit
is included. The reading level in the
version provided by Clerical Whispers, a
British blog, is appropriate for students in
intermediate grades.

Teaching about the changes (reproducible
pages)
Catechist magazine offers lessons in
a five-session format for teaching children
about changes in the words we pray and hear
at Mass. The USCCB document shows text
formerly spoken at Mass by the people, side
by side with the new text. The “Mass Prayers
and Responses” reproducible pages provide
the new text with changes in bold type. The
two-page standard version is intended for
class use. The bulletin version can be
printed back-to-back, folded, and used as a
bulletin stuffer for reference during Mass.

Teaching about the
Mass (Pflaum books)
These Pflaum books for
children and young teens who are learning
about the Mass have been updated to include
changes in the Missal. Welcome,
Children!, a
hands-on activity book, uses word games and
pencil activities to engage children in
learning about the Mass. Mass Prayers is
just the right size for primary-grade
children and includes both words to use and
the postures. Understanding the Mass
provides a step-by-step walk through the
Mass for young teens.
