Ms. Kim & Ms. Alayna’s2022-2023 Two-Year-Old ClassIt’s hard to believe the school year has been going by so fast. In our classroom we have 6 girls and 5 boys who all rock and have made this year extremely fun. So far this year, we have learned about letters A through T, numbers 1 through 7, many shapes, and colors.In January, we learned about many of the miracles that Jesus performed, like when Jesus walked on water, giving Bartimaeus his sight, and how he healed the lepers. We also spent some of our bible story time learning Zacchaeus and how Jesus changed his sinful heart by accepting him and loving him. We learned about the color white, the number six, and the diamond shape.This month, we will be celebrating Donuts with Dad, Ash Wednesday and Valentine’s Day. We will begin learning the story of how Jesus gave his life for us. Our bible stories will include Jesus healing the paralyzed man, Jesus loves the little children, The Wind that Obeyed, and Mary and Marth. We will be learning about the color pink, the number 7 and the heart shape.We are all looking forward to celebrating Valentine’s Day soon and are excited to keep growing and learning here at Methodist Day School.Andrea, Asher, Evie, Floyd, Hailey, Joziah, Korbyn, Mae, Millie, Myra, TyMethodist Day School
