Project Approach: What is it?
A Project Approach is an in-depth
study of a topic or theme. It provides
an opportunity to apply acquired skills in a meaningful, real life
context. It also provides a framework
for answering questions that parallel real world problem solving. The project can last for one day or for two
months or longer. It empowers the
learner to use information to solve their own questions and problems and is a
great way to integrate subject areas.
Our project topic is about Bugs.
Question #1: What do you know about bugs? Write down all the information tells you.
Question #2: What do you want to learn about bugs? Give your child some ideas if they
struggle
with this question. Write down answers.
Question #3: How can we find out more about bugs? Write down your child’s responses.
Then
suggest the following ideas:
a. Observation: Look at the bugs.
b. Books/Videos:
Read books and watch videos.
c. Ask
someone: It could be a bug expert or
not.
As you look through your child’s
answers help him/her to prioritize the type of bug or bugs he/she wants to learn
more about.
That’s enough for today. Great Job!!

Math: Adding to 10
·
Suggested Materials: sets of counters or
counting bears
·
Listening Vocabulary: join, altogether
·
For the purpose of explanation, I’m going to
refer to the items suggested in my teacher book.
·
NOTE:
Use manipulatives that you have at home.
Make adjustments as necessary.
·
Let’s Begin: Have your child create his/her own addition
stories with sets of counters or counting bears. Have your child draw a scene that will match the
type of counters he/she is using. For
example, if he/she is using bear counters, your child might draw a house or a
picnic scene and say, two bears were eating lunch on a picnic table when three
friends decided to join them. Encourage
your child to act out the actions in his/her stories with the sets of counters
or counting bears.
·
Some students will not need to directly model
with counters, especially with sums lower than five. If your child is ready, encourage him/her to
count on from the initial set. For
example: “4, then 5, 6, and 7. There are seven altogether.
·

Read the poem
to your child. Tell and addition story
using numbers from one to five. Have
your child use the fingers on one hand to join with the fingers on the other
hand to show the addition story.

Bible Story: Paul’s Conversion (Acts 9:1-22)
Memory work: Your sins have been forgiven. 1 John 2:12
Prepare the paper with the four
pictures on it and the words Paul’s Conversion at the top. Also prepare a picture of Jesus and a group
of disciples from a previous lesson. (Jesus Ascension should have both of these
pictures.) For your story today, you
might want to also include a city made out of blocks, some horse figures, and a
roadway in the setting. Your setting
could be designed on the back of a large brown grocery bag. Use a flashlight to make the beam of light.
Place
the figure of Jesus in front of the setting.
A long time ago when Jesus lived here on earth, He told people
(add Jesus’ disciples) how much God loved them. These people believed Jesus and became
His friends and helpers.
Jesus
finished doing the work He came to do as our Savior. He went back home to heaven. Remove the figure of Jesus. Jesus’ helpers began telling people how
much God loved them. They told
people Jesus was the Savior. They said that
Jesus died to take away our sins. He
forgives us when we have done something wrong. Many people believed and became friends of
Jesus too. Remove all figures. They were baptized.
But
there was a man who didn’t love Jesus.
His name was Paul. Add Paul. Paul was mean to Jesus’ friends and
tried to hurt them.
Add
the horse. One day Paul decided to go
to another town to look for more of Jesus’ friends to hurt them. Paul and his helpers rode along the road. Suddenly a bright light came down from
heaven. Add the beam of light
from the flashlight.
Paul
heard someone talking to him. It was
Jesus. If possible, arrange the tube
puppet of Jesus to be held above the light source. Jesus said, “Paul, why are you trying to
hurt Me?”
Paul
asked, “Who are you?”
Jesus
answered, “I am Jesus.”
Paul
was very surprised and frightened. He
asked, “What do You want me to do?”
Jesus
said, “Go into the city and you will find out what I want you to do.” Remove the figure of Jesus and the bright
light. Replace Paul with blind Paul.
Paul
opened his eyes, but could not see. Some
friends helped him get to the city.
Add the two soldiers. He went
to the city and waited. Remove all
the figures except Paul. He waited
and prayed. He told Jesus he was sorry
he had been so mean. He asked Jesus to
forgive him.
Add
the figure of Ananias. After three
days Jesus sent Ananias to see Paul.
Ananias said to Paul, “Jesus wants you to be His friend. He wants you to be His special helper. He wants you to travel to many places
and tell people how much He loves them.
He wants you to tell people He is their Savior who died on the
cross to take away their sins.”
Ananias
touched Paul, and right away Paul could see again. Replace blind Paul with Paul. Paul felt so happy. He knew Jesus loved him. He knew Jesus forgave him. He got up and was baptized. He said, “Yes, yes. I will go anywhere Jesus wants me to. I have wonderful news to tell of Jesus’ love
and forgiveness.”
Review Questions:
How did Paul feel at the
beginning? How did he feel when Jesus
came and talked to him? How did he
feel when he knew Jesus loved him and forgave him?
Jesus loves and forgives us when we do naughty things, just
as He loved and forgave Paul. Jesus
leads us to repent—to be sorry about the bad things we do, and to change so
that we live as people of God.
Song: Sing the words to the tune of “This Old Man.”
I’m forgiven, I’m forgiven.
On the cross Christ died for
me.
From sin and death, I now have
been set free.
On the cross Christ died for
me.
Prayer: Dear
Jesus, You love us so much. We know You
are our Savior. Help us to tell others
that You love them, that You are their Savior too. Amen.
