The summer is quickly approaching and the time for the school year to come to a close. We look forward to lazy summer days, family time and the ability to connect to our kids without the full schedule of the school days. This month’s lesson outline for our Kindergarten – 5
th
Grade Students is based on Isaiah 40:31;
“But those who trust in the Lord will receive new strength. They will fly as high as eagles. They will run and not get tired. They will walk and not grow weak.”
We learn how Perseverance-refusing to give up when life gets hard-is something we must learn at a very young age.
Take a look at the Parent Cue this month. There are great ideas of how to begin the reconnection of parent to child vs parent to screen time to child. “No-screen-in-the-car-May” is a great idea. Suggesting children say a quick prayer each time they reach for the TV/Movie/Game screen in the vehicle will help show the importance of enjoying God’s Creations around them, focusing on you and conversing in the car, and seeing how addicted to screens we are…especially during travel times. And as we ask this of our children, we MUST model this behavior ourselves. No email is that important, no text must be sent as we drive. Take the time to connect and pray each time you reach for your phone…I’m guilty and will be participating! If your family participates, let Ms. Hillary know and I’ll have a sweet treat for you and your family!
