This is the inaugural year for the new workshop rotation model Sunday School format. It's a new and exciting adventure for everyone involved. Grades 1 through 5 participate. Each lesson module lasts five weeks. Each room appeals to different learning strengths, allowing all students opportunities to understand and retain the lesson.
Classes rotate from room to room.
Students have a different teacher every week, but an adult shepherd guides them from room to room and provides stability and security. There are several advantages to this model. First and foremost is that students have multiple opportunities to hear the stories of our faith and to explore different facets in different ways, which helps ensure retention. If they miss church one Sunday, they still have four other weeks in which to hear the same lesson. Secondly, recruitment of volunteers is easier - teachers use the same lesson for five weeks, and can commit to teaching in five week increments, rather than for an entire year.
