(July 25) Ages 5-6: Yellow Groups A-E




Group 1
Adventure Activities - The children are playing musical chairs.
Stories and Drama - Children continue to develop their communication skills as they listen and respond while acting the scene "Jesus Calms the Storm". We had great fun acting out the different parts, and learned to patiently wait for our turns as we volunteered for the part of Jesus, disciples, the wind and waves.
ART - Today the red class will be making lady bug clocks and completing any unfinished art projects from this week. The yellow class will be making tissue paper sunflowers.
GAMES AND MOVEMENT - Day 5 Theme: God saves those who believe on Jesus
Today we will start with "Chicken dance" movement and review yesterday's lesson about Noah, than we will watch a short movie about Noah's ark and at the end will play a dodgeball game .
Music - Friday is Karaoke Day.  Singing songs we learned this week and letting students from last session sing songs from first session if they choose.  Fun times!!  :-)

Group 2
Adventure Activities - Mission Impossible
Relive the famous MI scene where Tom Cruise passes through laser beams to get to where he wants. Use strings or toilet papers as laser beams.
Stories and Drama - Today we will read about the miracle of Jesus calming the storm and have them act out the story.
MUSIC - Today we spent the whole class reviewing everything we've learned this past week. Solfege, songs, and games!
GAMES and MOVEMENT - Today's theme is a continuation of yesterday's theme of teamwork. We will play triangle tag and mine field movement games to show that we can rely and help one another to accomplish a task. Two is better than one. 
ART – We will be creating "Rainbow Bears".  Students will colour a bear picture, then stick on pieces of yarn to add texture.  They can then decorate their pictures as they like, using crayons and pencil crayons.
