Calling All Baby Cereal!
December 3, 2020 | Nathan Johnson
The children are busy gathering,
and counting baby cereal!
— This is hard work. And so good for our mathematician’s minds!
You’ll have a full report on all the mathematical learning that is happening through this service project in the next few weeks but for now …
Keep them coming.
Our math unit can always use more &
(even more importantly)
the babies need more.
Thank you so much for helping your children learn how to support their community and live out the Gospel through this project of giving.
Nathan Johnson
Early Childhood & Lower School Visual Art Teacher
Nathan Johnson graduated in 2004 from Lenoir-Rhyne University with a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Arts (focusing on Illustration, Art History, and Puppetry), Theatre, and Elementary Education, followed by further time in Europe studying Art, and in Nova Scotia working with adults with developmental differences.
Happily back at his Alma mater (MSS class of 1995) Nathan has passionately committed his career to preserving the dignity and wonder of childhood. As children are more and more burdened with technology and privilege, he believes that in order for children to learn and grow, they must be given freedom within structure, choices with guidance, allowed to play, struggle, get dirty, and above all, to be taught that they are a beloved child of God.
When not in the classroom, Nathan can be found kayaking, camping, hosting a game night, wandering around New York City, making friends with strangers, and spending time with his 11 nieces and nephews.
