W is for Whale (Apr 21-25)
W is for Whale
This week was all about Jonah and the whale, the letter W
and things that live in the water. We memorized Jonah 4:2 and took a field trip
to Living Art Marine Center in Honolulu. It was great to explore the different
animals that live in the ocean. We learned from Jonah’s experience that it is
better to be obedient to God (and our parents) than suffer the consequences.
For Pre-k skills we of course practiced writing W and
learned the letter sound and talked about words that began with the sound. We
water color painted and we also water painted letter review. We had water play
and learned how to measure it. We made tissue box whales for our running
spouts, I mean snouts. J

King is for King -- Happy Resurrection!
K is for
King
The Lord
is enthroned as King forever. Psalms 29:10
Jesus is
our King! As resurrection approaches this weekend we spent the week talking
about Jesus’ death and resurrection. We memorized Psalms 29:10, and repeatedly
talked about how Jesus is ALIVE! We made crowns to wear for King Jesus’ celebration
of his resurrection. We made him a shape castle. We built him a block castle
and we sang praises to him and rejoiced because he is ALIVE.
The
letter K was our focus this week since Jesus is KING. We played in shaving
cream and practiced writing K. We made a K collage and did some K stamping. We
read books about King Solomon and King Jesus and a silly King who wished for
oobleck. We learned about rhymes, made number posters, and did some beginning
reader sorting. April is safety month so we learned how important it is to wear
our seatbelt, so we went on a pretend trip to the park in our school bus. J
Happy
Resurrection!
From all
the little kings at Kingdom Kids Preschool.

Hawaii's Plantation Village Field Trip
This week was brought to you by the letter G (growing, garden, good and God).
To close out our week about the letter G and God’s creation
we visited Hawaii’s Plantation Village. We got a chance to go back in time and
see the simplicity of God’s people (created on day 6) during that time. The
parents and I thought about how different life would be today if we went back
to keeping things simple. We learned about the land and culture. We saw many
different trees, and plants created by God on day 3. Then we fed fish created
on day 5. We loved the malasada game but couldn’t figure out why someone would want
to throw food. But it was fun anyway! All in all we got to see God’s creation
at HPV first hand from the beautiful homes built by man to all the trees and
vegetation. It’s a small place to visit but full of culture and history.
