During the first three weeks of Advent, the
Sunday school teachers presented
a special “Advent Rotation” for the kindergarten,
first, and second grade children.
This format provides a learning setting in which the same Bible
story or theme is taught
for several weeks. Our little learners “rotated” to
a different workshop station
each week to encounter the story of Jesus’ birth in a variety
of ways.
The children had
the opportunity to visit the Drama/Storytelling workshop, the
Art/Games workshop, and
the Audiovisual workshop. The curriculum was based on Luke
2:8-20 – God speaks to the
shepherds and announces that God’s promise is fulfilled
in the Messiah.
Our children learned that God has a special
role for everyone,
including each of them.
