welcoming all the children

I told the children how much Jesus loves 

each and everyone of us.....

The children LOVE to look at the pictures of

their families and show the pictures to their

STORY TIME

I showed the children the cover

and asked them to predict what the story 

will be about.....

Try this sometime with your child

It is so fun

a great way to build language skills

and

It is a great pre reading skill

---- learning how to identify context

clues by looking at the pictures

The children all agreed this story was going

to be about a monster going

to school!!

Then I asked

do you think this is a TRUE story 

or a PRETEND story

All agreed it would be a pretend

story (fiction)

Clark was our Librarian

Cameron was our weather helper

Jace was our prayer leader

Charlie our snack manager
