I am a reading and math teacher for first grade without a homeroom so I don't teach actual lessons on religion.  I do, though, incorporate talk about Jesus continuously throughout the day and how He would handle certain situations within the first grade.  Attached is a weekly homework sheet that also incorporates the same WWJD Table Talk for the families at home  in hopes that the discussions carry to the dinner table. ]]> 2018-03-05 19:26:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/238307042 Thanksgiving and reading https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/238573530 Tammi Price

During our compassion quarter, we read the story in our 'Christ our Life" Religion book Matthew 25:34-40 ("where did we see you Lord?") After,  we brainstormed ways we can show compassion to our family, friends and the community around us just as Jesus did. The students then wrote how they are compassionate to others. We integrated this lesson with teaching the components of sentence structure, capitalization and proper punctuation.]]> 2018-03-07 20:46:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/239401522 Using Repeated Reading of Prayers and Church Songs to Improve Reading Fluency and Develop Faith https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/240081450

Holy Trinity School
At Holy Trinity, we completed a school-wide diversity project to help the students appreciate how we are more alike than we think and how our differences make us stronger. In first grade, our focus was on how, each day, our job is to use our unique, God-given gifts to make the world a better place. Students took time to think of their personal strengths, and specific ways they can use them to help others.]]> 2018-03-09 11:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/240092501 Lenten Journals https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/242310350 Each morning during Lent, students enter the school and our classrooms quietly as music is playing. In place of their sentence writing morning work, students complete an entry in their Lenten Journal. The entry is displayed each day on the board and students write their answer in their journal. A sentence starter is also displayed if a student needs help getting started writing. Then, they draw a picture about their entry.

We read the story of Christ's death; depending on your Religion series you can use your textbook or another book (i.e. the Bible) to read the story together.  Depending on the abilities of the groups (we do this in small groups), we pause the lesson to fill out the chart, the students can fill out the chart together, or they complete the sequencing chart after the story.

I gave my kids a biography about a Saint of their choosing.
 
Then I called them back in small groups to read the biography once on their own and then I read it to them once in case they did not understand any of the words. We then talked about the person and recalled information about them. I then gave them a biography graphic organizer that I found for free on TPT. I numbered the organizer 1-5.
          1. Born
          2. Dead
          3-5. Important Facts
We then went back into the biography and highlighted these facts and then wrote 1-5 next to the highlighted parts so they know where the fact goes. EX: Highlight born put a number 1 next to it and then it would go in the number one spot on the graphic organizer.
The kids then transferred their info from the biography to the graphic organizer.
I then printed a black and white picture of their person and they glued it in the middle of the white paper. They then separated their paper into four sections. #1&2 went into one spot, #3 in one spot, and so on.
They wrote it in pencil and then went over all pencil marks in sharpie. They then water colored over sections all a different color.

On Mondays in morning we read the story from our Children's bible. A few students practice retelling the story. The rest of the week in morning meeting, students take turns retelling the story to freshen everyones memory. During the writing center students practice writing 
the story.  If they struggle to remember the story they can reread it in our bible or check in with a friend. The students also draw a picture to help them retell. 
I review the story with students who struggled with details. ]]> 2018-03-16 02:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/242652425 Character Trait https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/242667549 2018-03-16 04:04:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mccannvicky/e9h61g955jtz/wish/242667549
