Elementary Lesson Plans: Introduction
These lesson plans are designed to be used in parish religious education programs and in Catholic elementary schools. We encourage local educators to adapt them or to create their own resources to share the message of Faithful Citizenship.
The following six sample sessions correspond to the Adult/Small Faith Community Sessions. One option is to make the sessions intergenerational where families and individuals of all ages gather for prayer and then break out into age appropriate groups.
