I sent all of our St. Brigid, Westbury, N.Y. catechists of all levels, a note to register for your Webinars according to their grade level. So I hope that they are all watching! I will be watching as well. We can all learn something from each other.
Sr. Ann, I’m looking forward to working with your “troops” in the Webinars!
Thank you for giving and sharing all out a very well-organized materials. Looking forward on this activity. I’m praying that my internet connection will cooperate as well during this course. So eagerly waiting to learn and adapt for our RE Program here in China.
“Charry” I’ll be sure to “look” for you tonight during the Webinar…greetings to you and all of our brothers and sisters in China!
As one of Sister Ann’s “troops”, I am looking forward to participating in tonight’s webinar. Even after 37 years of preparing children for First Eucharist, I know I can always grow and learn in my faith, to be able to share it more fully with others 🙂
You are an inspiration, Mary Pat!
Looking forward to tonights webinar! I invited all my catechists to watch & told them what a wealth of knowledge Joe Paprocki has & shares! I was just wondering if Joe will be the one presenting tonight? The confirmation e-mail I received today said the host was Dominic Yonto.
Hi Margie…yup, it’ll be me. I’m the presenter and Nick is the host…technical terms! 🙂
Hi Joe,
Looking forward to this webinar, I’ve taught 6th graders in the past, but this is my first year with 2nd graders…I’m sure I’m in for a ride. So any and all information you have to offer is greatly appreciated.
Hi Silvia…what a fun ride it will be!
I’m excited to get started! I hope I can get on the site when I’m supposed to and be a part of this. I’m sure going to try. I’ve been a teacher for years. I taught when my own children were small and now I have grandkids that are through the classess and I’m still teaching. I love the little kids!
Marilyn, and I bet they love you!
so disappointed, couldn’t hear a word.
Sorry you had an audio glitch, Nancy. The recording will be available in about a week so you should be able to pick up what you missed then.
I enjoyed the webinar (what I was able to work with) – had a technical clitch – keyboard issues – was unable to type legibly – but what I was able to listen to I was very pleased with. It helped to know I am doing some of the things you mentioned – but that there are a few others I can incorporate with the new school year.
Thank you for your presentation – I’ll refer to it often – as do to your Catechist’s Toolbox!
Mary Anne, I’m glad I was able to offer you a few new ideas!
Hi Joe;
Thanks for having the free webinar, It is always good to polish our techniques. You were very helpful and I am sure that everyone enjoyed it. I look forward to the next one.
Thanks again and God Bless
I appreciate your feeback and affirmation, Ella!
I just participated in the webinar….very informative and exciting. It’s going to be fun teachng and having fun with these kids and helping them to realize how cool it is to learn about God.
Lisa, your attitude is contagious!
Great session! I particularly liked the “polishing your technique” tips, so thank you for including them even though the session ran a bit beyond the hour. The survey flashed past as I was exiting the webinar so I was not able to complete it. I must have pressed a key by accident. I would be happy to complete the survey if you can tell me how to access it at this point.
Thanks Jeriann…don’t worry about the survey…I don’t know that there’s another way to access it. If you have any other feedback, you can just send it to me.
Hi Joe,
I became a catechist 13 years ago, and I still love it! I have learned so much about my faith, when I have been preparing my lessons, or while hearing my student’s responses to our topic in class.
I just want to send you a quick note to let you know, I truly enjoyed your webinar tonight, “Getting Ready.” It was very informative, and found you to be an amiable and knowledgeable presenter. I already do almost all the things you mentioned, and I learned a few more approaches to sharing my faith with my students, so Thank You! I appreciated having the handy “note taking printout” to follow along as you were addressing each topic. I also liked that the webinar was interactive!
I submitted one question that Nick immediately answered, the other question I’m hoping you’ll be able to answer in your blog. I was wondering if the slide show presentation will be available for print out, as an additional resource as well, or only the video recording?
Thank you, again!
🙂 Valerie
Valerie, thanks for all your kind words! Sorry, the slides will not be available as an additional resource…just the recordings. Best wishes in your ongoing ministry!
Thank you for your presentation. It was very informative and interesting. Currently I’m teaching 7-13 years of age as well as adults. I was just thrown into it, you might say, shortly after completing the RCIA program myself so I’m still learning. Your webinar was most helpful. Looking forward to your next webinar. God bless you for all the work you do.
Vera, you’re very welcome and best wishes to you!
Will it be possible to watch or listen to your webinar at another time. With the time difference, it is difficult to watch, live. Debi Anchorage Alaska
Debi, a recording will be available on my blog within a week of the live event.
Will there be a different handout for teaching middle school and high school students?
Beth Anne, yes, there will be some alterations on the handout.
Missed your webinar last night…didn’t find out about it on time. Glad it will be available soon. Meantime I an studying the other tools that you have made available. I’m a new catechist and they are very informative and helpful. Thank you!
Thanks Penni…what grade will you be teaching?
I missed the webinar. My problem is its time. Is there a way I can get handouts on the seminar of August 17 [Primary School].
Thank you and more power.
Hi Daye. The only handout available is the note-taking handout that you can download from my post on 8/16/11. A recording of the webinar will be available in a few days on my blog…you can watch that at your convenience.
