Know Your Catholic ABC's?

Find the Free Catholic Preschool Curriculum Here.

This year, I am teaching my son's class for our preschool co-op, and I'm really excited! You should be excited, too. Want to know why? Because I'm going to be posting it here for all of you. Want to follow along with your kids? You got it! The curriculum will be for preschoolers, but a lot of the crafts/food etc will be great for elementary aged kids as well.

Our curriculum will be covering numbers, then moving onto the alphabet- one letter per week. There will be a different craft for every number 1-5, then a craft for every letter of the alphabet. I'll be posting one themed craft each week on Wednesday, starting September 1st!

In celebration, we're kicking off this school year with this Catholic ABC themed muffin tin meal! A is for Angel, B is for bible, and C is for cross. (Second row- A is also for apple, B is for banana, and C is for carrot.)

The angel is made from a bugle, some pretzels, an oyster cracker, and a cheerio- all stuck together with cream cheese frosting. (I'll be posting some more detailed directions for these later this week).

The bibles are made from fig newtons. I got the idea to make books from fig newtons over on Shower of Roses. I'll be posting the full directions for making the bibles later this week as well.

So watch for Catholic Preschool A-Z starting here at Catholic Icing on September 1! 

Also, check out other alphabet themed muffin tin meals today over on Muffin Tin Mom! She's a good bloggy friend of mine. She's a Christian cancer survivor, and she posts lots of great food and craft ideas for kids :-)





*Updated in an Attempt to Clarify Some Questions*
I am going to be teaching my son's preschool for our co-op. His class is for ages 2 1/2 - 3 1/2. However, I really wanted my daughter to learn her letters this year, and she is 4. So the curriculum will be flexible for all preschoolers through kindergarten. The crafts will also be good for older kids- they will just need less help. I am going to post the whole curriculum, not just crafts. Class is exactly the same each week, but doing the same routine with the new letter. The craft each week will be different to coordinate with the letter (or number) and I will post the new craft each Wednesday. Each week will also have a coordinating bible verse OR prayer for them to learn, and may or may not include a snack idea, song, or coloring page. I am homeschooling both of my preschoolers this year in addition to teaching this co-op, but I will only be posting the Catholic stuff here.
