Zion's Parents Day Out

10-2A

Our Bible story from Genesis 6, (Children's Bible):

Many years later there were lots of people on earth, but most of them were bad. One man-Noah-was good. He obeyed God, "I want you to build a boat," God told Noah. Noah started right away. People laughed at Noah because they lived in a desert and there was no water for his boat. Noah just went on building his boat.

This week we will continue with the color, shape and number for the month of September. We will attempt to find the color red in our room and octagons as well. We will look at our bodies and try to decide if we have 2 hands, 2 ears, or 2 mouths etc. Finally, the students will be asked to look for objects that are in front of another object or behind another object. The children will have an opportunity to explore new centers: chalk board, magnetic board, and the arks. As a class we will search for arks hidden around the room. The children love to paint so there will be several painting projects such as: painting an animal, Noah's tools, apple stamping and rain drop stamping. The class will spend some time out of doors playing with the toys and sensory table filled with sand. The boys and girls may work animals puzzles, enjoy looking at books individually or with a buddy. Additionally students may play with seasonal magnets on the magnetic board, get creative with chalk on the chalk board easel, lace animal cards, match and pattern apples, make a 1, 2, 3 Rain drop book and touch "rain drops" made out of various materials; telling how the material feels. This is a fun sensory activity. As a group we will act out the story of Noah; making all the sounds of the tools he might have used. Lastly we will cut open an apple an examine the inside.

I hope everyone had a wonderful and refreshing weekend. Blessings on the rest of this week. Happy October and thank you for choosing Zion as your school of choice in educating your child spiritually and academically.
