Welcome to the Lions Class Page!

  Thank you for all the good wishes and lovely Christmas gifts.  I am truly blessed to work with such a wonderful group of children, and wonderful loving families.  May God bless you in 2012 as you seek to know Him, and find out His goodness and love for you.

Our themes and concentrations for the month of January are:  New Year’s expectations,  Winter Weather and Clothing,  Animals in Winter, Day and Night.  Letters for our show and tell game are L, M, N. 

We continue to work on number and letter recognition, fine motor skills, speaking in sentence patterns, following directions and taking turns.  We are working on using pictures to tell a story and retelling a story in order. 

We will learn from the Bible how God took care of the baby Jesus by warning Joseph to take the family and escape to Egypt.  Two other Bible lessons will be Joseph’s Coat and Jacob’s Dream.  The children respond eagerly to our weekly Bible time with the Angels class.

January 29 will be Pajama Day. Children should dress in pj’s to close the theme of Night and Day.  Some children are uncomfortable with this change from the usual expectation.  If this is the case with your child, perhaps they would prefer to dress in sweats.  Encourage, but do not insist that they wear pajamas, if  this causes them to feel anxious.

We will play outside whenever weather conditions permit.  Please be sure that your child has warm accessories for the playground.
