October 2nd

This week we begin our study of God's faithful servant, Noah.

Genesis 6:14-16

God told Noah to build a huge wooden boat called an ark. 

"Get some good strong wood to build the boat, and cover it inside and out with tar.  Put a roof on the top and build rooms inside. Put a door on one side. When the flood comes you will be safe."

Noah did as God said. People watched and wondered. They even laughed at him! Why was he building a boat so far from the sea?

A Song for Noah:

Sail, Sail, Sail the Ark

There are many learning activities to go along with the story of Noah. Here are a few that are planned for this week.

*Coloring Noah and the Ark

*Matching magnet animals

*Playing hide and seek with the animals

*Tracing an octagon

*Painting fall leaves with water colors

*Cutting straws

Today we enjoyed playing in the commons. Mrs. Helmkamp brought out the obstacle course for us to share with the preschoolers.

We walked up a ramp and jumped off onto a mat

We hopped like frogs on lily pads

We stretched our leg muscles and stepped over hurtle bars

And repositioned them

Some of us needed a
little help

After the hurtles we jumped on circles and ran through hoola hoops.  A big thank you to Mrs. Helmkamp for thinking of us and allowing us to join the fun in the commons.
