Crowning Ceremony 2013 (Gold Medalist Ceremony) - Part 1

What a wonderful ceremony…OUR FIRST HONOR Girls Only Club has finished the "entire" program.  Here are some of the pictures that we took for her at our church.  She was not able to attend the district ceremony because her and her parents left the week before to go to Australia - they are new pastors to a church there.

Reading the Bible

Reading the Bible is VERY IMPORTANT in everyones life…especially if you want to become an Honor Star.  I created just like an elementary teacher would do - different centers inside the classroom.
In our Stars class I decided to create a "Reading Corner".

• So I went to Wal-Mart and bought 2 area rugs (pink and with cute flowers that I know the girls would love).
• We made small pillows with different scrap fabrics.  
• I asked the church members to donate any NIV gentle used New Testaments and one of the ladies volunteered and brought us 15 new small size NT.  
• I made a folder with a chart for each girl and they were responsible to check of their progress.

Praise God!

The Many Names of Jesus - Project

For the Life of Jesus Unit each girl was given 3-4 pieces of paper and they had to write and decorate a different name that Jesus has.  I had a list of them and they divided the names among themselves and this is what they created.  Enjoy!

Working on the different Stars Units

Praise the Lord for all the girls I have had the privilege to help become "Honor Stars"

Some use the Bible they have on their phones!

Stars Unit Armor of God Project

For our Armor of God Project I gave the girls a copy of the different parts and they had to color, decorate, and explain.  This project took 2-3 Sundays.

I made a sample of each.

Finished Projects

Our Stairway to the Stars Awards

I am still old fashion because I call keep calling our class the "Missionettes" and climbing the "Stairway to the Stars" but it has helped the girls understand that you need 27 units and all 9 honor work to become an Honor Star.
Here is a look at the bulletin board I use to keep track of what the girls have completed:
The girls get a little "goofy" and excited every time someone earns a sticker.  I love how excited they get!

I scanned a color copy of all the units and make copies and glue them!

Our Stars Classroom

Come in and see how I decorated our classroom.  We had a window and now its gone with the new construction…but a fresh coat of paint has helped brighten the room.

So much has happened in the Stars class...

Hi everyone...
I am still working with the Girls Ministries program and I have so many pictures that soon...this summer, 2015 I should have more pictures and posts of the many things we did.

More to come stay posted.
