Enjoying God’s Gifts
Through the study of creation and the lives of Bible Memory verses characters, First Graders will see that all we have comes from God. The ultimate gift God gave us is His Son, Jesus Christ. Stories from everyday life are used to encourage the development of inner character traits.
All students will have the advantage of learning, using computers not only in the classroom but also in our state of the art Computer Lab. Students will become familiar with the basic components of the computer. Computers will be used with age and grade appropriate software. All software will correlate with the school’s curriculum to enhance the child’s learning. They play typing, spelling games, sight word bingo, counting, graphing, addition, subtraction, money games, creating Word Search puzzles utilizing sight words.
