Course Description - 1st Grade
We use the "Blest Are We" Faith In Action series to provide students and their families with a thorough understanding of our Catholic Faith. 1st Grade is not an optional program; it is a preparation for 2nd Grade when they will receive the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Eucharist. Students will be introduced to some basic teachings that the Catholic Church teaches about the Blessed Trinity. They will put together a booklet titled "This Is My Church" (both home and class work) and will learn about St. Denis Church through field trips (at the church). They will focus on prayers they need to know by Second Grade and will learn the Lord's Prayer and the Hail Mary (sung to music to help them learn). Practicing prayers at home is essential since our time together in class is limited. Classes are held in the Church Hall from 8:30 to 10:00am on Sunday mornings, so that families are able to attend the 10:15am Mass together after class. Any missed class will require make-up lesson to be completed and returned to teacher. Classes, parent meetings and community service are all part of the program. Check the above schedule for the date and time of class, your email (messages sent via Flocknote), the church bulletin and website every week for any updates.
*Remedial instruction will be necessary in 2nd Grade for any student who misses the 1st Grade program.
