Teddy Bear Baptism

Today we had a baptism for our stuffed animals. We learned how a priest baptizes people. Father Angelo helped us. This morning we brought a stuffed animal or bear to school. We made candles using a toilet paper roll. We glued paper to it and put a yellow napkin inside like a flame. We also made a gown for the teddy. During a Baptism, you have to white to show that you are being cleaned of Original Sin. Our bears got to wear white! We drew crosses on them.

Then we walked over to the church to baptize our bear. We took a picture of all of us and our bears. Then Father Angelo had us sit around him and he explained how children or adults get baptized.

He told us that baptism makes us a member of the church and one of God's children. Then he showed us the holy oil. It's called chrism, but we didn't get to smell it like the teachers did. They said it smelled sweet and beautiful. Then he explained about the candle and how it reminds us of God's
light. We showed him our candles!

Finally, he let us baptize our stuffed animals and bears.

We put some holy water on their heads and made the sign of the cross and it was a really cool and fun to learn about the special sacrament. We loved it so much! Afterwards Father Angelo came to our classroom and we showed him our baptism books. Our mommies and daddies made us books about us getting baptized. They are so special. We shared them with Father Angelo and we showed all our friends. It was a really fun day! By: Panda, Moose and T-rex

We made Maps

We made a map of a pretend city in groups. We had to add a map key, scale and a compass. Our map had roads and we used symbols to show where things were in our city. Our city was called, "Gaming City." We made Game stop and our the Earthquakes stadium. We also made a pond with squids. It was a cool city and we had lots of fun. I can't wait to see what everyone else's cities look like! It was so much fun! By: Panda

Word Family Webs

Last week we made word family webs and it was fun making the spider. We had to words on the web that had the same sound in them. For example if the sound was -at, we had to make the words, "Pat, sat, cat, and bat." We wrote the words in the parts of the web. Then we sharpied it so that we could see it from far away and we made a little spider with 8 legs for the web. We had tons of fun and they make our classroom look creepy for Halloween! By: Capybara

Sacrament Song and Foldables!

The Sacrament song teaches us about the seven sacraments. We learned all about them! We sang a song and we got to do hand motions when we sing.

We also made this cool poster. We had to draw a picture and glue it on the poster. We loved singing and we loved working hard on the project! We hope you like the project and our song! By: Fox
