2007 – 2008 CURRICULUM
This year the Explorers, Artists, and Bridgers will use WE BELIEVE: Learning and Living Our Unitarian Universalist Principles. WE BELIEVE is a UUA-published curriculum designed for all ages. The twenty-two hour-long sessions include stories, discussions, activities, and worship experiences that are interesting and engaging for four-year-olds to sixty-four-year-olds and all those in between and beyond. The curriculum is based on the seven principles as stated in the UUA Bylaws. While learning more about our UU heritage, our children will also learn to articulate their UU faith through positive statements about what they do believe rather than the usual UU counterstatements to other faiths.
In twenty-one sessions our UU principles are explored in three different ways. Session number twenty-two allows each class to reflect upon and celebrate their memories of shared experiences.
In addition to the RE curriculum, our children have several opportunities to participate in intergenerational services held throughout the year and two exciting “Youth Celebrations!” with Rev. Robin Gray.
Come learn with us!
