Faithfulness to prayer leads to a recognition of the need and an acceptance of the responsibility to pray for one another. By providing short prayers for each day of the school year, Daily Prayer in the Classroom assists teachers, parents, and others in the experience of praying with children each day. Daily Prayer in the Classroom introduces elementary school children to various kinds of prayer; gives teachers confidence in what and how they pray with their students; builds confidence in the adult's ability to lead prayer in the classroom or home; and offers children the opportunity to foster a prayer life. By continuing to pray daily, participants begin to see the connection between prayer and action. As they allow themselves to be open to the Holy Spirit they develop a personal relationship with God and with each other. Daily Prayer in the Classroom consists of short prayers for each day from August through June. Each day begins with an introduction or background followed by questions for discussion and a short prayer. Part One includes prayers for each day of the calendar year including the feasts of saints, prayers for those in need, and prayers for deepening spirituality. Part Two includes prayers for the movable feasts, the incarnation and paschal cycles. A special section of prayers includes blessings of people, places, and things; traditional prayers; virtue; personal, local, national, and international needs, and times of illness or death.

This helpful volume includes a clear, easy-to-follow format for daily classroom prayer for every day of the school year, along with mealtime prayers and a prayer for the end of the day. A Weekly Prayer page provides a service for use with religious education classes or other groups that meet only once each week, and a special section provides additional prayers and blessings. The heart of Children's Daily Prayer is a simple order of prayer that can be easily led by a student. It is the church's ancient way to begin the day: an introduction to the day, a psalm, a few verses of scripture, reflection or journaling questions, intercessions, the Lord's Prayer and a closing prayer. Each day is clearly dated, making it easy to find and easy to use. The CEV (Common English Version) translation, the one found in the Lectionary for Masses with Children, is used for all scripture readings. Seasonal introductions, simple directions and preparation pages make this a treasure for teachers, catechists, parents and anyone who prepares prayer for and with children.
