WOW wk13, 2/27/2011 - G4/G5 Class

Howdy,

Hooray! This is the week 13 to wrap up our G4/G5 children Sunday school class for Spring quarter of 2011.
I'd like to thank all the parents for your support along side this "journey" - exciting and biblical-based learning for the boys and girls I hope.

To encourage the students, I prepared a sweet treat (in a brown bag) for the class; They can only enjoy the treat after lunch (只許午飯後吃). :) [天性, 孩子喜歡吃糖!]

Today's theme: Jesus blesses the little children.
Mark 10: 13-16
[10:14 對門徒說、讓小孩子到我這裡來、不要禁止他們．]

Main point is that Jesus loves everyone and YOU are important to Jesus - including little children regardless of their age, physical size, race, etc.

As usual, we practice 5W (What+Who+When+Where+Why) and 1H when reading through the passages;
E.g.,
What? : Jesus want little children to come to Him, and blesses them.

One of the passage about:
耶穌看見就惱怒 about the fact that 門徒便責備那些人", because 有人帶著小孩子來見耶穌.

Next, a hands-on activity - Playdough session, to allow Boys and Girls team to bring the story alive via hands-on crafts. Each team is given 2 cans of Playdough to work with.

They are to use the playdough to design and make figures, objects, to tell the story of Mark 10:13 to 16.
To encourage full participation, we ask the students to focus on, at least,
a) verse quotation
b) creativity
c) artistic rendering
d) application - give examples of what Jesus's teaching is about.

Here is the final Playdough 3D creation from Boys and Girls;

We'll show another video when the students are working on the Playdough later.

Memory Verse: Mark 10: 14b
"讓小孩子到我這裡來、不要禁止他們．因為在　神國的、正是這樣的人。"

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."

LUNCH: Fried rice with egg and bacon.

Once again, it's been a joyful ride to learn the bible stories with your child.
Keep praying for them as they grow in the loving environment of your home with God's words nurturing them.

KLUP!
