Make Way for the King
John 12
It was Passover! Everyone who could went to Jerusalem for the celebration. Jesus got ready to go too. He asked his disciples to get a donkey for Him and told them just where to find it. "Untie it and bring it to me. Tell anyone who asks what you are doing that the Master needs it," Jesus said. The disciples did as He asked Then they laid their coats on the young donkey's back and Jesus got on it. The trip to the city was exciting. People laid their palm branches in Jesus' path. Some of them even spread their coats on the road for the donkey to walk on. "Hosanna! Praise God!" they shouted. Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"
Our prayer:
Dear God,
I love Jesus, and I want to praise him like the people in the story did.
Amen
The children have learned several things from this story:
The people welcomed Jesus. We welcome Jesus.

Jesus loves to hear our praise!

We can praise Jesus with our words and actions.

I'd call it a terrific Thursday as we PRAISED God, befriended our classmates and applied all that we are learning to our school environment. See for yourselves all our activities we did today.
Jesus loves us all.
We give hugs for different reasons. Hugs are good.
March comes in like a lion.
Time for toys.
We love the boxes. They are so much fun.

Jesus Board-Palm Sunday
Since we are learning to recognize the color yellow and the shape of a rectangle, we took a walk around campus to see if we could find these two things. Sure enough, bricks are rectangles.
The siding shows rectangles.
The trailer and doors are both rectangular.
The fire hydrant is yellow.
There is yellow tubing on the wire. The children were very observant on this walk.
We enjoy having the Commons to ourselves.
We loved playing with PDO friends. It's been a LONG time since we've had recess on the playground.
We practiced naming the letters of the alphabet. The first time the letters were presented in order. The second time they were randomly shown to the children.
Patterning shamrocks.
Getting ready for our Palm Sunday Parade.
We are praying the Superman prayer.
