Fall Topic: I–II Samuel, I Kings, and I–II Chronicles
Fall Décor Theme: Museum Adventures

During the fall quarter, students will examine the lives of Samuel, Saul, and David. They will explore Bible history with hands-on exhibits and interactive lessons. Students will also be led on a tour of leadership qualities modeled by biblical characters to discover how they too can be called by God to make a difference in their world.

The Kindergarten curriculum is designed to meet the needs of children in Pre-K (the year just before attending Kindergarten) and Kindergarten, roughly ages 4-5. These children are eager to learn and experience new adventures. This teacher’s manual puts into the teacher’s hand practical and exciting ideas to feed these hungry minds a well-balanced diet. Creative ideas are given for teaching the children as they play, give, and do. Every segment of the lesson reassures the children that God loves and cares for them. As the children learn basic Bible story facts about people who are part of His story, they will also hear how they too can be part of His story, using some of the same techniques, decisions, and thought processes that the Bible characters used.

Extra helps are included throughout the teacher’s manual such as Bible backgrounds, teacher insights that discuss characteristics of four- and five-year-olds, suggestions for working with those with special needs, and practical teaching tips that cover everything from clever craft ideas to dealing with discipline issues. All activities, memory work, games, and lessons are age-appropriate to meet the broad scope of the various students’ learning skills, while encouraging them to stretch their abilities.
