10/14/11‏ 10/14/2011 0 Comments   Greetings to all, This is just a quick up-date on preschool happenings, and really just the tip of the iceberg. Our Bible story for the past 2 weeks has been about Noah.  We learned many songs about Noah.  Next week our Bible story will be about baby Moses. Our current character trait is obedience/obey.  Our last character trait was orderly.  These words are used through out the day with in their proper context to teach good life skills that will help our children have success in life. All of our students will be enjoying learning about fall leaves and pumpkins.  We will incorporate stories, art, math, literature and science when teaching about the changing seasons. Next week I will be teaching isolation movements to a rhythmic beat.  I will be using a skeleton (green plastic non-scary) to show them where their joints are and how they connect. *****It has come to my attention that our local family homeless shelter, http://www.fauquierfamilyshelter.org/,  is in acute need of food pantry items such as canned soup, peanut butter, jelly, ravioli, etc.  Marian King, jmchj@comcast.net, is the contact person for our shelter ministry here at Warrenton Church of Christ.  She tells me that the shelter contacted her about this need.  They said they have never seen it so low.  You can contact Marian directly or bring food items to drop off in the car line and Marian can pick them up here.  This is a good opportunity to be a cheerful giver to needy people right in our own town.  I know that God will be happy with any effort to help. It is my plan for our preschool family to be responsible for the month of November for the homeless shelters fresh food needs.  If you would be willing to provide a gallon or two of milk or some fresh fruits for the homeless shelter then please let me know. Typically someone signs up for one week and makes one trip to the homeless shelter.  Or you may want to just bring in one or two items and someone here can get them to the shelter. OR YOU might be the person who takes the items to the shelter.  Their web-site is listed in the above paragraph.  This is something that I have wanted to do for a long time.  I am excited to partner with my preschool families to be a part of serving people.  Many blessings to all, Becca   Comments Leave a Reply
