In this scenario, the teacher is right there with the kids. Kids take turns reading the Kids Application Bible study notes and these become fodder for discussion if the teacher wishes to pause. The Kids Application Bible study notes found throughout the Discover the Bible scripture readings contain a number of interesting discussion starters which could be the basis for other complete lessons. The subjects of each of these notes is listed in this outline. Because of the familiarity of the birth story, you might choose to use this CD as a refresher and then jump into one of the deeper subjects in the Discover the Bible study notes.

Slowing them down a bit is always an essential task when teaching with computers. If you're teacher can't be right there every moment, create a set of questions either on a worksheet or on the board which they must find the answers to in the program. This will help them to slow down and hold them accountable for information. Some teachers, however, feel that The Birth of Jesus CD plays a little younger than that. That's how I did the graphic here at the top of this page.
