Montessori Classroom News December 14, 2017


 Advent in the Classroom
Week 2 (“peace”) we heard the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, who in their old age became parents to a special child named John. John would grow up to prepare people for Jesus and teach God’s way of peace.

Song of the Week:
Peace before us, Peace behind us, Peace under our feet;
Peace within us, Peace over us, let all around us be peace.

Each week we add a verse to our candle-lighting song, one for each of the candles on the advent wreath
Light One Candle
Light one candle for hope;
One bright candle for hope;
Christ brings hope to ev’ry heart;
He comes, he comes…

Light one candle for peace (joy, love)...
