We are learning about school and so I thought it would be neat to learn about what it was like to go to school in a one-room schoolhouse many years ago. Mrs. Gebauer’s ABC’s website has some great information and wonderful pictures for you to read and use.

Use one or both of the letter Aa patterns Uppercase letter A pattern, lowercase letter a pattern and let’s do some finger-painting. Since this is the first part of the school year you may want to use primary (or first) colors or red, yellow and blue. It’s fun to watch children mix the colors together and see what secondary colors they get.

Creation
Print out Bible Verse Memory Coloring Sheet and have your children color the picture. Sit with your children while they are coloring and talk about what they see in the picture (see questions below if you’d like some ideas). Your discussion will lead into the Creation story you read together.
Questions to ask if you like:
- What do you see in this picture? (Accept all answers: moon, stars, water, land)
- Do you know who created what you see in this picture? (God. Some children may not know and that is okay)
- What do you think we are going to learn in our Bible story today? (Accept all answers. Creation, land, water, moon, stars, God)
This is a perfect time to talk about the Bible and how to use it. You can show the children your Bible so they have a better understanding of what a book, chapter and verse are. You can say: “The Bible is one big book made up of many smaller books. Each book has a name. Today we are learning a Bible verse in the book of Genesis. When you find Genesis in the new testament look for the number 1 at the top left or right of the page, this is the chapter. You will see Genesis 1. We are looking for verse 31, and those numbers are much smaller under the big 1.” After looking at the Bible show them Genesis 1:31 written out on their Memory Verse Coloring Sheet. To see and hear all of the Books that make up the Bible watch this fun, short video, The Books of the Bible, by Readeez! After they are done coloring they can hang their Memory Verse Coloring Sheet up in a special place. Then when your child walks by the sheet they can work on memorizing the Bible verse.

Today we are going to do some q-tip painting on the schoolhouse. You can print out this Schoolhouse then cut it out or red (or whatever color) construction paper. For fun, you can have your child draw themselves on the schoolhouse. This will work with children on what body parts are needed when drawing themselves. It’s okay if their body is as big as the schoolhouse or if it’s small.
