1st-5th Grade
"Faith Village"
"Faith Village" involves all 1st-5th graders learning through a rotational learning method!
Faith Village focuses on 1st-5th graders meeting in a different classroom each week during a rotational period. For a 4-5 week period of time one bible story or concept is studied. Each group rotates to one rotational workshop each week. Rotational workshops can include: bible knowledge, cooking, science, nature, drama, computer adaptation, kinesthetic movement, media production, puppets and more.
