The lesson “Elements of a Community” teaches children about living and actively engaging in a healthy church and social community. Each child will name three special places in his or her community, such as a church, school, or market, etc., and will be able to explain how these special places benefit all of the community members. Each child is also encouraged to pray for his or her community. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 3-5 years, and is the 26th lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Community Awareness” unit.
