"Forgive us our sins"  Luke 11:4

This week in Jesus Time we continued our Peaceful Problem Solving Unit, and we have been talking about feelings, thumbs up and thumbs down choices, porcupine and teddy bear hands, feet, and words, we also talked about STOP, COOL DOWN, and PRAY, and we sang "O Be Careful Little Eyes", which we would change it to ears, mouth, hands and feet, to help us learn that we need to make thumbs up choices.





In art we used sponges cut into shapes to paint.












We tye dyed baby wipes, by putting 2 rubber bands on and making 3 sections and coloring each section with marker.

We made rainbow rice name pictures.
