Morning Work

Attendance Helper

WE had 14 friends here

*(one friend came a little later)

2 friends NOT here

Ava volunteered to be

invocation leader

We read the story of Jesus'

baptism from the bible

Then we talked about

what happens when we

are baptized

OUR SINS are WASHED away!!!

I demonstrated with this dry erase board

Wrote the word sin in a heart

We talked about when we don't do what God wants or our

parents---that is a sin and it can fill our heart

then I said when we go outside to play

we may get dirty--

made wiggly lines all over

to represent dirt

I told the class when you get dirty---we can 

wash it away with a cloth, water/soap, etc..

I wipe all over the board and only the "dirt "came off

not the sin.....

I explained we are so BLESSED

that

 JESUS can 

wash our sins away

If we allow JESUS into our

hearts

HE can wash our sins away

I drew a cross and wiped the board again

and you can see it washed away the sin

where the cross was drawn....

then I said we should always try to FILL our hearts with 

JESUS 

He can take our sins away....

I filled the heart.....

Wiped again

AND everything  washed away!!!

JESUS SAVES US!!! 

They were pretty amazed

with this example

FUN WITH MUSIC AND ART

We told the children we were going to

move our pens to the music..

how did the music makes us feel...

sometimes it might be slow

sometimes it make us feel like drawing wiggly lines

and sometimes it goes really fast and

we move our pen really fast

BUT

when the music stops

we stop drawing too!!

I tired videoing---I will try to email it

or post to seesaw later if it turned out

WOW!!! The children LOVED this!!!!!

The next step which we did in a smaller group

was sematary art

putting paint on one side and

then folding paper in half

then rubbing our hands or rolling pen over paper to spread the paint

THEN

Open the paper and see what you created!!!

SO FUN

The other children played in centers as they waited for

their turn!!

ramps and loose parts

Trains

so busy and having SO much fun

PROCESS ART 

allows children to be creative and express themselves

it is all about the process of creating 

and NOT what the final project looks like and it doesn't have 

to look like anyone elses--which promotes positive self esteem!

Millie and several others REALLY enjoyed the wooden

beads and ramps

Simon was our

superintendent

Landon was our exercise leader
