GODLY PLAY

TAUGHT BY JULIA PETERSON & PEGGY SANDERFORD PONDER

Preschool children experience a reflective encounter with the stories of scripture. They are encouraged to wonder aloud about what they have heard. Wondering allows children to learn by discovery, to create sacred space, and to build community.

1ST – 3RD & 4TH – 6TH GRADERS

TAUGHT BY JULIA PETERSON & PEGGY SANDERFORD PONDER

Elementary children learn as scripture and faith are woven into experiential storytelling and interactions. Their teachers are sensitive leaders who seek to meet the needs of a wide range of learners. Most of all, children will know they are cared for by loving adults and the God in whose image they are made. Sparkhouse, Shine, and Sanctified Art are the curriculums currently being used by these classes.

1st – 3rd Grades meet in Room 214 with Ann Carol Mann, Kelly Jolly, Jasmine Martin, and Davis Mann
4th – 6th Grades meet in Room 212 with Sarah Davison, Janet Goodwin, John Hollis, and Dennis Wilson.

They follow the lectionary-based curriculum for teens called, Feasting on the Word. Weekly, they explore scripture through discussion, activities, art, and prayer experiences.
