Little Disciples K-2 Walking with Christ

Little Disciples K–2: Walking with Christ is a joyful catechism course for students in Levels K–2. Rooted in the life of the Church, this program helps our youngest learners grow in their love for God while discovering what it means to live as Orthodox Christians in the world.

Each week, students are invited to pray, read Scripture, meet the saints, learn the hymns of the Church, and explore the foundational teachings of the Faith. Lessons are simple, beautiful, and hands‑on, encouraging families to participate together throughout the week.

Alongside these practices, children are gently guided in the cultivation of Christian virtue—kindness, patience, gratitude, courage, generosity, and love—learning how these virtues shape their hearts and daily choices as they walk with Christ.

Through story, song, prayer, and wonder, Little Disciples helps young children begin building a lifelong friendship with Christ and a deepening connection to His Holy Church.

Required Materials:
Books and supplies are not included in the purchase of the course. These resources are listed to help inform your decision-making as you make course selections and build your course schedule. Please reach out to the instructor if you have any questions about materials.

A detailed book and supply list for each month will be provided before they are needed.

Computer: You will need a stable, reliable computer, running with a processor with a speed of 1 GHz or better on one of the following operating systems: Mac OS X with Mac OS 10.7 or later; Windows 8, 7, Vista (with SP1 or later), or XP (with SP3 or later). We do not recommend using an iPad or other tablet for joining classes. An inexpensive laptop or netbook would be much better solutions, as they enable you to plug an Ethernet cable directly into your computer. Please note that Chromebooks are allowed but not preferred, as they do not support certain features of the Zoom video conference software such as breakout sessions and annotation, which may be used by our teachers for class activities.

High-Speed Internet Connection: You will also need access to high-speed Internet, preferably accessible via Ethernet cable right into your computer. Using Wi-Fi may work, but will not guarantee you the optimal use of your bandwidth. The faster your Internet, the better. We recommend using a connection with a download/upload speed of 5/1 Mbps or better. You can test your Internet connection here.

Webcam: You may use an external webcam or one that is built in to the computer. Webcam Recommendations: Good (PC only) | Best (Mac and PC)

Headset: We recommend using a headset rather than a built-in microphone and speakers. Using a headset reduces the level of background noise heard by the entire class. Headset Recommendations: USB | 3.5mm

Zoom: We use a web conferencing software called Zoom for our classes, which enables students and teachers to gather from around the globe face to face in real time. Zoom is free to download and easy to use. To download Zoom:

Visit zoom.us/download.
Click to download the first option listed, Zoom Client for Meetings.
Open and run the installer on your computer.
In August, students will be provided with instructions and a link for joining their particular class.

Scanner: In this class, students frequently submit homework assignments by scanning pages from their workbooks. Students and/or their parents should have easy access to a scanner and the ability to use it.
