Lesson 1

Our typical class schedule works like this!

The kids come into class I pass out their books and give them the chapter we are on today. I then pass out their saint coloring sheet for the week with the crayons. We begin with prayer, I then go through the lesson with the kids or review from the last week. We then discuss our saint for the week, Have the students pass out the parent newsletter. I ask for volunteer to help clean up and then we get ready to leave. I dismiss the students in prayer and tell them to have a great week.

For lesson 1 we reviewed creation which needs to be reviewed with the students so that they know how God created the earth. Here are the days of creation that I sent home with the students in their newsletter

The Seven Days of Creation
Day one: Day and Night
Day two: Sky and Clouds
Day three: Land and Plants
Day four: Sun, Moon, and Stars
Day five: Birds and Fish
Day six: Creatures of Land and Man
Day seven: God Rested

We discussed the fall of man and how original sin enter the world.

In the newsletter each week we have a review section called Tell About it! This is the bible story discovery section of the newsletter. These are questions that we you to ask you children every week this week here are the questions from this week

The Fall of Man: Genesis 3:22-23
Here are some questions to ask your child to review the Bible story and verse:
• What is heaven?
• What is hell?
• What are the angels?
• When Adam and Eve failed God’s test, did God abandon them without any hope?

I include the sections of the Catechism for your review in the newsletter.

Life Discovery
The students learned about grace the precious gift that we must cherish. It is necessary for eternal life in heaven. They will learn how Adam and Eve lost grace.

God in his mercy promised to send a Savior who would again open the gates of heaven.


Please pray the Our Father and Glory Be with your children everyday! These important prayers that we as Catholics should know and use everyday.

Coming Soon …
Next Week: The students will learn about the first murder. We will also look at if God stops loving us because of sin.
