First Day School: Protestants and Easter

Today at First Day School, the older class (the LSG) surveyed a bunch of small Protestant denominations and sub-groupings.  We are going to spend some time at our next regular lesson going over the Amish, Mennonites and Brethren before/during when we schedule church visits, process them and move on to our next unit - they seem to be sort of a unit in and of themselves to me, so they are going sort of with the Holy Book-Protestants unit, but sort of as their own group, in our study.

The Little Friends class (the LSB)  did a lesson on the faces of Easter - seven little vignettes about the birth of Christ, young Jesus in the temple, the baptism of Christ, the temptation in the desert, the parables, the last supper and the crucifixion and resurrection.  Then she chose as her work to draw the Christ candle (that the Episcopal Church we meet in have in their Sunday School room that we use) in colored pencils.
