Here a first grader is creating her own ‘Fettuccia,’ a work which examines the ‘Big Picture’ of Salvation History. The three moments that form the essentials of this History include: Creation, Redemption, and Parousia.
This first grader is looking up Scripture passages in the Bible, becoming familiar with the many books of the Bible and how to find the chapter and verse of a specific citation.
In this picture, a second grade boy is copying a page from the Level II Missal. This abbreviated version of the Roman Missal contains the most essential gestures and prayers of the Mass. Making their own Missal is a project many of the 2nd years take to enthusiastically. This copying work allows for a deeper pondering of these prayers and a fuller participation in the celebration of the Eucharist.
