10-14A

Families,
It was so nice to see many of you at the Harvest Party! I enjoyed the evening and I hope all of you did too.
The Bible story for this week:
When the last animal climbed into the boat,  God shut the door. Plip! Plop! Plip! It began to rain. It rained so much, the water was over the meadows. It rained so much, it covered the towns. It rained so much, it even covered the mountains. But, inside the boat, everyone was safe. Genesis 7:16-24.

Thus far we have learned that God wants us to obey him. God keeps us safe. I would encourage you to read this story at home. Try leaving out some of the information or ask questions as you go along. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how much information your child has gleaned from this story.

These are the activities that were available to your child today.


We began the day matching animal cards. 

We played in the harvest sensory table. It is a good fine motor activity.

Creative play with the arks, animals and Noah.



The magnetic board and pieces are all about the Bible story.

Time for toys.


We painted the tiger orange.

I can stamp orange circles.



We added animals to the ark.

We made an ark complete with animals.

We matched orange, red, yellow, and brown leaves to the matching jars.




A-B-A patterning with a pumpkin and a scarecrow.


We sponge painted a rainbow.

The students played an animal memory game.

We started Jesus Time with a review of the story.


These are the books that I read to the boys and girls today.

I showed the children posters of animals. the class took turns naming them.

Book Time.


The classmates love to play with the pieces and tell the story.

A-B-A patterning with yellow and red apples.

We sang and danced to If Your Happy and You Know It.

Ring around the Rosie.

Weather Frog is dressed for another Rainy Day.
