Our goal at Connexus is to partner with parents to help your children develop spiritually and morally.
Parent Connection is a new section of our Connexus web site that is designed to highlight what your kids/students are learning each week and to update you on any upcoming events. We know that no one has more influence on your child than you do, and it's our hope that this site will be one more opportunity to partner with you to teach your kids about faith and character. We want you to be informed so that you can talk about it all week at home!
If you haven't checked it out, go to our site and under Families & Singles you'll find Parent Connection. There is great information about what your kids are learning. This month in Waumba Land we're learning that "God Loves Me". This month in UpStreet we're talking about Joy.
Family Fuel Packs – UpStreet Parents (Gr 1-5)
There is something brand new for UpStreet parents this month that we're really excited about.
We started handing out our new Family Fuel Pack in UpStreet on April 6th and we've had several positive comments on them already. The packs contains several resources for the month to help partner with you in teaching your kids about faith and character and more specifically about their monthly virtue. We also started a new incentive program with pitStop points. The kids are excited and motivated and love checking the red pitStop tool box so see what they can earn. We're hearing that kids and parents are doing their God Time Cards, reading the meal times cards and listening to the CD's at home with their kids. We are so excited to see parent and kids learning and discussing the monthly virtue.
We would love to hear your comments about Parent Connection and the Family Fuel packs. Please give us your feedback here on the blog.
