Our Board of Education has implemented a
new curriculum this year using a creative hands-on leaming
approach. We are continuing with rotational Sunday school
classes; this helps the
students to learn the bible stories using several different
options. We will be using arts/crafts, science/nature,
drama, music, storytelling, and games to help retell the stories
so the kids might better understand the lessons God is teaching
us through different Bible stories. Preschool
students will be following the same themes as K-5th graders but
will not rotate teachers every
Sunday. Opening music takes place together for Preschool
through 5th grade in the large meeting
room off the educational wing downstairs; using simple songs and
actions the kids get moving
and singing to praise God together. Opening worship is 15
minutes in length . The students then move to their
classrooms and spend the remaining time of the educational hour
there. This year
we are encouraging fellowship with the older members of the
congregation by doing Sunday
school activities in the fellowship hall on fellowship Sundays
(the first Sunday of each month).
The kids will enjoy fellowship hour with the adults and often
have a “job" to do during
fellowship hour that will help our children to get to know
members of the congregation better.
