Sunday School Curriculum
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, for children ages 4-10
The goal of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is to nurture the child's relationship with God. The Catechesis accomplishes this through the use of hands-on materials, prayer, songs, listening to Bible passages with children, preparing children for full participation in liturgy, and by giving them time to work with materials.
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a religious education program based on the methods of Maria Montessori. Central to the program is the Atrium, a room containing beautiful materials that focus the child's attention on key Scripture passages or liturgical moments. After an introduction by the catechist, the children are invited to work with a material on their own to continue their meditation.
