Teaching First & Second Graders

Concrete Methods

These children learn from what they can experience rather than by merely talking to them. It is very important to use visuals, tapes, records, filmstrips, role playing, and dramatization. Avoid symbolism such as the Word of God is light to our feet.

Story Telling

They love stories! It is a good rule not to tell imaginary stories. Every lesson should be based on the Bible or related church history, and should have a story quality to it. Be sure to emphasize that these events are real.
