CRS Rice Bowl

-
As a Catholic school teacher, my participate in many different activities during the Lent season that help our children learn about and prepare for Easter. One of the activities out school does is the Rice Bowl. Each family at school receives a bowl from Catholic Relief Services. It is a 40 day challenge that guides families through the season of lent and giving. Along with the rice bowl activities at home, CRS has a website with many kid friendly videos to explain Lent. In preparation for Easter and Holy Week coming up we have been exploring the CRS Rice Bowl website in my Kindergarten class. You can find the website here. 
My class loves to watch the "Stories of Hope" videos. These videos share stories of people in other counties that have benefitted from Rice Bowl donations. Here is one of the videos. 

If you are a catholic school teacher, you may enjoy these online resources too!

The have videos about grammar, math, social studies, science and more! Another feature I love about GoNoodle ...
