Nursery Lesson Plan 16: I Can Help Others - 8 January 2012

Dear Parents,
 
Happy new year to all the Sunday Pre-school children and parents.

I hope that the children can continuously be reminded in this coming week about I can help others around me. Please continue to remind your children about how your children can help one another in their communities like at school and family.

Please find a brief summary below about the concept area and the activities we introduced to the children yesterday:

Concept Area: 


Community and World


Theme:

I can help other around me

Bible Story:

Luke 10:25-37 Jesus tells about the Good Samaritan 

Bible Verse:

Galatians 5:13 Help one another

Activities:

We introduced to the children about The Good Samaritan. We set up 4 activities stations, one of them was pasting various pictures on helping one another like helping old people crossing the road, helping friends who fell down, helping each other to climb mountain, helping the weak and injured one in disasters, and helping each other in paddy field. Through this activity, we have a good conversation time with the children to introduce them the concept of helping one another. At the 2nd activity station, the children did colouring on a picture of the Good Samaritan. We introduced the story about the Good Samaritan helping the injured person at the roadside. The 3rd activity was letting the children to nurse a baby doll. They were guided on how they could help to put on a plaster on a baby doll as if there was a cut on his leg. The children also helped to put on a baby diaper. This activity help the children to understand that they can help the younger children at home or in their community. The last activity station was a bible story station where the children can choose a bible story they like and we tell them the story. 


During the Bible story telling time, we introduced them The Good Samaritan story. After the bible story telling, we reinforced the learning from this bible story by asking them who is the person in the story, the priest, the Levite or the Samaritan did the right thing. We also try to have a conversation with the children about how they can help one another at home or at school to connect this concept with their daily life and application. We concluded the Bible story time by playing a fun game. We ask each child what was their preferred colour of the gummi bears and the rest of the children helped one another to pick up their friends' preferred  colours from a big bowl of mixed gummi bears into their friends' bowls. This activity enhanced their understanding of the concept of the day.

I urge and encourage you as a parent to continue the learning aim at home on what the children have learned at the Sunday Pre-school.

I hope to see you all again at church on Sunday!

Blessings,

VK
on behalf of the teachers on duty on 08 January.
