preschoolChildren in the Preschool/Kindergarten begin their experience each Sunday upstairs with their families. By doing so, the children have the opportunity to:

  • ring the church bell
  • add canned food to the weekly food collection
  • greet neighbors and friends
  • participate in our music
  • hear the Message for All Ages

Children will be escorted downstairs by their teacher and the Director of Religious Exploration, Sarah Montminy.

Once downstairs, children in the Preschool/Kindergarten class are guided by one of the three teachers who have volunteered to work with this class for the entire school year. In this way, our children grow comfortable with these familiar faces and bonds are formed.

Our teachers for the 2015-2016 school year are Dee Carman, Susie Poole, and Shannon Dixon.

At the beginning of each session, the group gathers together to light their chalice and share these special words:

“We light this chalice, symbol of Unitarian Universalism.
We are the church of the open mind (lift hand as if opening up your mind),
helping hand (turning hands outward, as if giving something away),
and loving heart (crossing hands over heart or making heart sign).
Together, we care for our earth (make round symbol with hands),
and work for peace and justice in the world (holding hands in our circle).”

After lighting our battery operated chalice, our kids often take the time to share their joys and concerns, much like the congregation does upstairs. This can include small or large things, from losing a tooth to losing a pet. The sharing of our joys and concerns fosters an important sense of community among the children.

Our curriculum for the 2015-2016 school year is based on the scope and sequence provided by the UUA and centers around the church-wide monthly theme. As a result of these rich topics, our Preschool/Kindergarten class can be found listening, discussing, acting, drawing, experimenting, playing games, creating, modeling, singing, painting, and performing. The class will utilize session plans from the UUA’s Tapestry of Faith curriculum as well as a variety of secondary resources.
