Spring 2025 Activities of our
|
In addition to their monthly religious education (RE) classes at the Aldea, our Young Explorers also enjoy periodic social gatherings throughout the year. Several of them gathered for pizza and board games on Saturday, March 29, 2025. They had a blast! Here are a few pictures.
In the classroom this spring, they have been studying the UUA curriculum “Love Connects Us,” a stellar collection of lessons that puts love at the center of everything they learn at the UUFSMA. Their remaining classes for the 2024-25 academic year are as follows: Sunday, April 13
The lesson "One Person Can Make a Difference” introduced the students to the story of Craig Keilberger, a 12-year old Canadian boy who read an article about child labor in Pakistan and made up his mind to do something about it. He inspired six of his friends to join him in forming a group called Kids Can Free the Children. Together they made it possible for children to get an education instead of jobs. And that was just the beginning of their human rights journey. SUNDAY, MAY 11
“The Power of Peace: Thoreau, Gandhi y King” introduces the group to the power of nonviolent resistance and activism as practiced by Henry David Thoreau, Mahatma Gandhi and Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. SUNDAY, JUNE 22
“Peace Inside: Serenity, Courage and Wisdom.” When 10-year-old Marissa comes home and tells her mother she’s angry with her best friend who was mean to her at recess, the mother encourages her to dig a little deeper and consider why her friend might have acted the way she did. By putting herself in her friend’s shoes, Marissa learns an important lesson about compassion and kindness. |
