Unwrapping Gifts at Full Life Center
Submitted by Sue Visser, Kindergarten Teacher
|
|
The First Graders, Kindergartners, and Second graders are making a difference, and have been doing so for the last ten to twelve years. Several times during the school year, we visit a place called Full Life Center, a daycare facility for the elderly, stroke patients, and physical and developmentally disabled. They contacted our school to see if we would be interested in visiting their facility several times per year. The first graders partner with either Kindergarten or the second grade class and recite a Bible passage, sing some songs (both Bible and other ones) and then complete a craft with the clients.
