Kingdom Quest, Year 2, Ages 4-K

Description

Kingdom Quest—Our version of Sunday school.

Experiential learning in a Small Group/Large Group Rotation Model 

Ages 4-5-K

58 Lessons

 

It’s highly RELATIONAL. It shifts from Sunday school teachers who try to deliver the entire lesson in classroom teaching style to small group leaders who help kids discover the truth of God’s word.

 

It uses CREATIVE presentation techniques. When all the kids from the ages grouped together come to watch the Bible event, it might be a story tell presentation, interactive drama, or even video clip. Puppets help set up the lesson.

 

It is JESUS-CENTERED. All lessons point to the main theme of the Bible: God’s rescue for us through His Son Jesus.  The broad biblical scope gives you a balanced 10-year scope and sequence.

Description:

This is our version of Sunday school.  It feels more like a Vacation Bible School every Sunday.  It utilizes hands-on learning aimed at multiple senses and learning styles, in a Large group. Small group.  Large group format.

 

This Kingdom Quest age grouping includes 4-year-olds and 5-year-olds, but also might include 6-year-olds who are in kindergarten. You can repeat our preschool lessons on a two-year cycle. Lessons are arranged in mini-series most often with a theme that is emphasized for 4 or 5 weeks.

 

The kids gather together for singing about 10 minutes prior to the beginning of the hour.  This tames anxious preschoolers and helps them ease into the group as they join the singing when they arrive.  Ages 4-5-K begins with the Large Group Bible event and teaching. Kids then move to their Small Groups where we reinforce the Bible truth through a snack, craft, and game.  Lastly the kids gather one more time as a Large Group to review today’s lesson and teach Albie, the silly bird puppet, the take home point of the day.  “God Talk at Home” are the take home pages that encourage conversations about the lesson.

 

There is a “Read Me First” document included with the lesson material.

 

It includes links to the Kids Kount Publishing website containing:

• Introduction video (34sec)
• Skill Builders videos, to assist in developing your staff.
• Build-It, Sew-It, and Paint-It videos to aid in making Bible costumes, puppet stages, and complete sets of slides, Kid City and Bible Village, with painting instructions allowing you to create your own kid-friendly area, backdrops and much more.
• Snack-Sized videos (2-3 min each):  to aid your children’s ministry volunteers develop their training skills.
• The Shepherd’s Path page is a weekly devotional to help the Sunday School presenter prepare for the lesson.
