The Classroom curriculum model walks through key Old Testament and New Testament Bible stories each year, in a two-year cycle. The Old Testament stories are presented in the fall quarter and the New Testament stories are presented in the winter and spring quarters. Christmas, Easter and Pentecost stories are included in the lesson sequence each year.

Life as a Classroom curriculum leader:

“I’ve been the CE director at my church for many years. We use a traditional classroom curriculum, but I am having a hard time recruiting teachers. What should I do?”

• Traditional doesn’t mean boring. The engaging activities and colorful lesson leaflets offered with Spark make it easy to discover God’s Word. If the traditional setting works best for your congregation—that’s great! Spark is designed to accommodate all the different ways kids learn. Imagination, creativity and discussion will come naturally, no matter where the lesson takes place.

 

• Ease of use and the empowerment of teachers are part of the Spark philosophy. Excited and engaged teachers are role models for students. Spark equips you with lesson preparation videos, online forums for Christian educators to share ideas, lesson flexibility to teach the Bible story in the way that works best for you and your students.
