During the course of the quarter, each group rotates to each classroom. Teachers have only one preparation and repeat it until all the groups have participated. Interest Center Approach . Set up each classroom for a particular learning activity, e.g., arts, media, drama, writing based on the session. The children will gather in assembly for singing and the Bible story, then participate in one interest center for a response activity.
Teachers have only the response activity to prepare each week.
Invite good storytellers and musicians to lead the assembly time. Broadly Graded Classes By the Month. Instead of dividing the children into grade groupings, form them into learning groups that include all ages. These groups meet for a month at a time with a teacher. Each month form new groupings so that the children can get to know all the church's children better.
