Sunday School Trinity Church Fall 2018
TRINITY’S CLASSES FOR CHILDREN MEET SUNDAYS AT 10 A.M.
Age 3 – Grade 4
Age 3 – Grade 4 Building Faith Brick by Brick
This approach to presenting Bible stories engages children with multiple learning styles using a familiar medium: Lego® bricks. Building Faith Brick by Brick offers a culturally relevant, hands-on way to explore faith stories with a broad range of ages. After hearing a Bible story creatively presented, children will interact with the Bible by creating the part of the story that speaks to them – using Lego® bricks or another artistic medium of their choice. Many non-Lego options for responding to the Bible story will be available. Each of our lessons will stand alone, so please come as often as you are able without concern that you will be “behind in class.” Our class for students age 3 – grade 4 meets in the activity room of the Smith Wing .
