All but one student participating in most of the activities and listened to the Bible lesson. There were pre-activities to help prepare the students for the Bible story, and then there were some more activities afterwards. The students seemed to be engaged with all of these things.

Base many of their practices on the silence of the Scriptures, and appeal to the traditions of the…

    My field work experience had started in the preschool and where I have done the majority of my observations thus far. In the preschool I was beginning to understand how the different of components of the preschool all had concepts of phycology through all aspects of the classroom.
