Ages 4-5 Catechist Guide

Single-day lesson plan for parish programs. Easy-to-follow lesson plans with prayer, strategies and activities. Each lesson follows an easy-to-use, step-by-step process: 1) Gather: Music signals the children to move to the story-time area and helps focus them on the chapter story. A feelings check-in provides an opportunity to promote social-emotional development and moral formation. 2) Teach: In every lesson, the children discover and learn through a story. Intentional connections are then made thorugh questions, discussions, and reflections. 3) Apply: Age-appropriate activities, with an emphasis on play-based learning, engage the children and reinforce their understanding of the story, connecting what they have learned to their everyday lives. 4) Pray: Every lesson ends in prayer. Additional extended prayer celebrations are provided in the Stories of God's Love songbook. Planner pages that give objectives and an overview of each lesson. Background pages give catechists important content about each faith theme. (©2024)
