Religion
Our third grade series is published by Silver, Burdett
and Ginn. I encourage you to visit Blest
Are We. Each chapter provides interesting study of the following
themes.
What Catholics Believe
How Catholics Worship
How Catholics Live
How Catholics Pray
The third graders use Good NewsBibles to find passages
to study and they become quite proficient in locating chapters and verses.
We study the liturgical calendar to follow the seasons and feasts of our
Church. Each student writes a prayer in our classroom prayer book.
This is used in combination with traditional prayers.
The children attend weekly Mass. Each classroom
is given the opportunity to write the petitions and Communion reflection
for two of these Masses. We are blessed to have this opportunity
to celebrate Mass together as a school community!
