ELEA CERTIFICATION

Kids of the Kingdom Preschool is pleased to have completed the Evangelical Lutheran Education Association (ELEA) certification process. This process included a detailed self study done by KOK as well as a visit by a team representing the ELEA National Board of Directors. Kids of the Kingdom was awarded a full five year certification.


OUR PHILOSOPHY

Believing that the first five years of a child’s life are crucial to his/her development, we realize that a positive preschool sets the tone for years to come. We will provide a wholesome, nurturing environment that will meet the needs of each child’s spiritual, social, emotional, cognitive and physical growth. Our Christian ministry will plant the gospel in the hearts and minds of the children at KOK, so that they might know the love God has for them in Christ Jesus. To accomplish this goal we have weekly chapel times with the Pastors, Christian Ed Director or Director of Children’s Ministries of Lord of Life, as well as Bible lessons and daily prayers. We are dedicated to promoting the development of the whole child, as we encourage positive self-esteem and individuality, while fostering respect for others and the world around us.



OUR STAFF

Our teachers are hired for their love of children as well as their experience and training in early childhood education. All of our staff keep up to date on current ideas and teaching techniques by attending at least 18 hours of training sessions each year. Every staff member is certified in CPR and First Aid Training.

Kids of the Kingdom utilizes a theme/literature based curriculum that is reinforced in various learning centers. These centers include art, blocks, manipulatives, housekeeping, reading, writing and science.

News from the Director

March 2007

“Let us love one another because love comes from God.” 1 John 4:7

February was a great month at Kids of the Kingdom. We celebrated Valentine’s Day with a special “Love Our Pets” Chapel time. “My Service Dog Group” came in and shared with our preschool friends what it takes to be a service dog and why some people need the help of these special dogs. The children watched as an adult service dog and a puppy in training demonstrated their talents for helping others. It was great for our preschool friends to experience and also to have a better understanding of those with disabilities.

The last week of February was rodeo week! The children were dressed in western clothes, made bandanas, had wagon rides on the playground and ate hot dogs or pigs in a blanket in the classroom! YEE HAW!

Now we are moving into March and the special Easter holiday season. We will celebrate with our annual Spring Fling where the children will experience through crafts, science, story time and chapel time the wonderful news that Christ is risen. What a special lesson we get to share with our preschool friends.

We will be off for Spring Break the week of the 17th! After that it will be just a few short weeks until summer. The year has gone by very quickly. Thank you Lord of Life for supporting this outreach ministry and allowing us to share the love of Jesus with our preschool friends and their families.

God Bless,
Randa Martin, Director
