Bible story:

Luke 19:1-10

A Very Short Man

Everywhere Jesus went, there were crowds of people. In one crowd there was a very short man named Zacchaeus. He wanted to see Jesus, but he couldn't see over the crowd. So he climbed a tree. Jesus said, "Zacchaeus, come down so we can go to your house today," Zacchaeus hurried down and took Jesus to his home. Zacchaeus wanted to do good things. He told Jesus that he'd give half of the money he stole to the poor.

Shake, shake the the box.

Look and see it is a marble heart painting.

Some class members took it a step further and were able to reproduce the smaller pattern onto the larger one.

It is a masterpiece.

Big and little heart patterning.






Small, medium and large heart match.



The class matched snowmen according to the color of the scarf. 


Oh what fun. Since it was TOO COLD to play outside in the snow, we brought the snow inside and played with it in our sensory table.

The girls and boys agreed that the snow was white, cold, soft and melted when we held it in our hands.



It was fun to spray paint the snow.



Jesus Time.

Our story.

Enjoying quiet time with a book.


A book that I read to the class.

One of the pages.

This was a fun book to read and listen too.

The snowy day adventure begins.


The final book...

Another recess indoors. We are blessed to have this space available for indoor recess.







The boys and girls matched paint chips with Mrs. Burke.

With Mrs. McBroom, the children played "I Spy". They found objects hidden in the picture.

FOUND ONE!
