Week
of April 10, 2017
This
was such a fun, busy week in kindergarten!
We finished up our first Superkids Club book. The SuperKids are showing us lots of
different ways to go on adventures with our friends. They are very good at using their
imagination! We started a new unit in
math – geometry! We are starting with
flat shapes and will move into 3D shapes after our break. This week we participated in the Student
Council sponsored service project. We
decorated placemats for a local nursing home.
We decorated them for spring and Easter.
Holy Thursday Retreat: We started our retreat with a prayer
service. As a part of the service 12 of
our students had their feet washed, much like Jesus washed the feet of the 12
disciples. William represented our class
– great job! After the prayer service we
broke up into four groups of students Grade K – 8th grade to visit
stations set up throughout the school and church.
Station
1: The Lost Sheep (Luke 15:1-7)
“Then
Jesus told them this story: If any of you has a hundred sheep, and one of them
gets lost, what will you do? Won't you leave the ninety-nine in the field and
go look for the lost sheep until you find it? And when you find it, you will be
so glad that you will put it on your shoulder 6and carry it home. Then you will
call in your friends and neighbours and say, "Let's celebrate! I've found
my lost sheep." Jesus said, "In the same way there is more happiness
in heaven because of one sinner who turns to God than over ninety-nine good
people who don't need to."
Station
2: Loaves and fish (Mark 6:34-44)
“After Jesus had crossed the Sea of Galilee, a
large crowd followed him, because they knew he had healed many sick
people. Jesus climbed a mountain with
his disciples, and he could see that the crowd had gotten very large. Jesus could see that the people were
hungry. He said to Philip, “Where can we
buy enough food for them to eat?” Philip just shook his head and said, “Two
hundred days’ wages work of food would not be enough for each of them to have a
little (bit).” Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Jesu, “There is a boy
here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are they for so
many?” Jesus told his disciples “Have the people recline.” There was a large,
grassy filed that was clear and flat enough for all of the people, which
numbered about 5,000. Jesus took the
food that the boy had, said a prayer of thanks and had his disciples start
passing out the bread and fish. As
Jesus gave them food, they walked through the crowd and gave it to anyone who
wanted, as much as they were able to eat.
When the disciples finished, there was enough food for everyone and there
were still uneaten portions. The Jesus
said, “Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted.”
Station
3: Seeds on Good Soil (Mark 4:1-9)
“Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so
large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the
people were along the shore at the water’s edge. He taught them many things by parables, and
in his teaching said: “Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell
along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not
have much soil. It sprang up quickly,
because the soil was shallow. But when
the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had
no root. Other seed fell among thorns,
which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain. Still other see fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, some
multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times.” Then Jesus said, “Whoever has ears to hear,
let them hear.””
Station
4: Jesus calls disciples (Matthew
4:18-22)
“As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two
brothers, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net
into the sea—for they were fishermen. And
he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fish for people.” Immediately
they left their nets and followed him. As
he went from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his
brother John, in the boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he
called them. Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed
him.”
