Just a little feedback about what is going on in each classroom so you can continue the conversations with your children. Each of them is a unique expression of God's love and we are grateful for the time we spend with them each week.
Unikidz (ages 3 1/2 - 5 years): This week we continued to explore the question: Who is God? Children at this age are so full of hope and wonder and they come up with some amazing comments. Parents take a moment to ask your children who God is... we guarantee their answers will be priceless.
Kidz 1 (1st and 2nd graders): This week was based on seeing the presence of God in yourself and in others. A calendar was handed out so that each child could put a sticker on the days when they remembered to recognize God in themselves and in others. Please ask your children if they remembered to look for the presence of God in others and themselves and help them mark it on their special calendar for the month. (Class based on lesson 6 in our new curriculum.)
Kidz 2 (2nd and 3rd graders): This week we discussed that God is in everything and is sacred in all living things. We took time to go outside and have our discussion where we could see all of the living things around us where God is present. We discussed what divinity is and cam up with various answers. Parents, take a few moments this week to ask your kids what divinity means to them.

Kidz 3 (4th and 5th graders): This week we began with the beginning: Who is God? We asked the question and we had as many different answers as we did children. Parents, ask your children who God is and ask them to tell you about the Elephant folktale that we read. We also took time to go outside and find one item that represented God and bring it back into our classroom to create an altar. Ask your children to share with you what they chose and why. They are so creative and inspiring - you'll definitely want to hear their answers!
