On Wednesday, September, 16, Pastor Shawn visited Wee Disciples Preschool for some Jesus and Me time. It was our first Chapel of the year and first Chapel since COVID-19 appeared. We are so blessed to be able to begin this activity again. Thank You, Pastor Shawn!
Wee Disciples Preschool watched caterpillars change into butterflies over the past few weeks of school. It is an exciting and amazing example of God’s wonderful work! Today, Friday, September 10, 2021, we sent our Butterflies out into the world.
Please come and help the Wee Disciples Preschool Committee, teachers, and families spread mulch on the playground this Saturday. Bring a rake, shovel, or wheel barrel if you able to help. The work begins at 8:30 am. More hands make light work for all! Contact Karen Rohrer with any questions at weedisciplespreschool@yahoo.com
Wee Disciples Preschool celebrated the end of the 2020-21 school year with a Moving Up and On Celebration on May 20, 2021. The students sang some of their favorite Bible Time songs from the school year for their families. It was a great end to a fantastic year of preschool.

Wee Disciples Preschool has created a COVID-19 Reopening Plan for the 2020-21 school year. We are following state and local guidelines in order to ensure the safety of our staff, families, and students as we prepare for the upcoming school year. We will start school as planned on August 24th! Watch for more news about our preschool in the coming weeks.
Each school year I like the end the year talking about Christian Attitudes/Character during Bible Time. I like the preschoolers to know that when you love Jesus, God’s Holy Spirit is in you. This Holy Spirit works through us each day. The Fruits of the Spirit concept comes from Galatians 5:22-23 “…the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
At Wee Disciples I like to take one fruit of the spirit to focus on each day of preschool. For example I would begin talking about love. I introduce how God shows love to us, talk about love and describe what it is, give examples of showing love to others, challenge the students to show love to others, and point out when love is shown by students throughout the day.
The following is a YouTube Video that briefly explains the Fruit of the Spirit. https://youtu.be/TZrlDT3k84U
Here is a link to a song on YouTube to help teach the Fruit of the Spirit to your child. https://youtu.be/xWoWDdeD-ns
Now challenge your preschooler to show the Fruit of the Spirit each day or work on one “fruit’ each day. Have fun using the Fruit of the Spirit to introduce and encourage Christian attitudes and character.
Many times in the preschool classroom, I have heard “my picture looks bad,” “I made a mistake,” or “this does not look good”. Today I want to challenge the thinking that art has to look a certain way. Art is an expression of who we are. Making a picture that looks like another picture is fun and helps us learn, yet it is even better if you put your mark on it and do it a different way or your way. Lets start today by showing the preschoolers the story “Beautiful Oops” by Saltzberg. Here is a reading of the story: Beautiful Oops! By Barney Saltzberg
The lesson today is that even a rip, stain, blob, drip can be art. Its just a matter of how you look at it. I hope that each of your children will learn to be proud and confident in their art ideas. There is not a wrong way or right was to create a masterpiece! Be creative and adventurous!
Another story I enjoy is called “The Dot” by Reynolds. Here is a reading of this wonderful story: The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds | Read aloud Book for kids
Encourage your child to make a mark…anything is art! And…don’t forget to sign your name!
Have fun creating art with your preschooler!
