Students become involved in the third telling by bringing the paper figures to the front of the class, acting out the narrative. It all revolves around a memory verse and serves as a reinforcement of that verse when seen at home. The lesson is also tied to a craft project such as cutting out and coloring palm leaves for a lesson dealing with the events of Palm Sunday. In past lessons, they have created a collage, made greeting cards and even planted seeds while studying the Creation unit. During a closing worship, the memory verse is reviewed, and an echo-prayer includes the prayer concerns of individual students.
Music is another big part of the study.
Simple songs are employed, again supporting the lesson. Frequently, each person is given the opportunity to strum an autoharp while the teacher fingers chords. A collection is taken up during worship and the money used to purchase the materials needed for operating the class. Participants are taken by vans to bowling, arts and crafts, fitness center programs and bingo games with residents of a nursing home.
