Patient Stories/Scenarios
Fruit of the Spirit: Patience
For the month of October, we will be working on patience with the students. For preschoolers, this looks a little bit different at school than it does at home. At school, we are teaching the kids how to raise their hand to speak, how to save their stories for center time, how to wait their turn, among many other things that requires patience. We know this can be challenging for 4 and 5 year olds, but we will be working on it all month long. Please look for ways in your home to encourage your children to be patient.
