Rotation Sunday school is for children in grades 1 - 6. Three year olds through Kindergarten meet in "Traditional" Sunday School atmosphere in Fellowship Hall. Junior & Senior High School Classes are also held each Sunday from 9:00 - 10:15 a.m. and follow the same Sept - May calendar as Rotation Sunday School. (Watch for a new and improved Youth Page soon) |

People often ask, "What is Rotation Sunday School?" Simply put, it's a new way of teaching children stories from the Bible. However, the approach is quite different from the traditional- present a different bible story each week - approach. Rotation S.S. provides need repetition (without boredom) to ingrain the text and its implications by covering the same major story 6 weeks in a row, but from various perspectives through "workshops". In our new Rotation S.S., only 5 major stories will be covered each year, but students will have retained those 5 stories to a much higher degree than the once-and-done approach. |

A teaching tool can be anything from food to high-tech electronic equipment - anything that can be used to bring a lesson to life in the mind of the students. A variety of teaching tools can tap into the different ways students learn. For instance, videotapes help students learn visually. Art is a great way for students to learn through their sense of touch. Drama helps kids learn emotionally, by letting them "step into the shoes" of specific characters from a story. These teaching tools provide different ways to reach lesson goals, and they ensure that students with different learning styles will have equal opportunities to understand the lessons. |
