41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the
offerings were put and watched the crowd
putting their money into the temple
treasury. Many rich people threw in large
amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put
in two very small copper coins, worth only a
few cents. 43 Calling his disciples to
him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor
widow has put more into the treasury than
all the others. 44 They all gave out of their
wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in
everything—all she had to live on.”

 Relate each Bible passage to the whole Scripture.
 Relate each lesson to the whole of student’s life.
 Use real illustrations from modern life.
 Use positive role models from Scripture.
 Solve problems.
 Point out relationships in the lesson.
 Point out the principles.
 Motivate students to establish and live by
biblical principals.
 Relate new principles to those already known.

Here are some general means of getting your
students’ attention:
 an illustration from your own life, from the
news, etc.
 a question purposefully chosen for them to
share about some aspect of their week that ties
into the theme of the lesson
 a story (could be from a book or a video clipping
or recorded TV show ... Just enough to get their
attention, perhaps taking them to the climax of
the story)
 a puppet presentation
 a short skit/drama
 a game from which a point can be made

* READ THE STORY A COUPLE OF TIMES to get a feel for the material.
* READ FROM VARIOUS VERSIONS of the bible AND OTHER SOURCES.
* LOOK FOR ANY UNFAMILIAR, DIFFICULT WORDS.
* TELL THE STORY, DON'T READ IT!
* GIVE TIME PERIODS or dates. Who was King etc.
* WHERE DID THIS TAKE PLACE? What's the location, weather
conditions, nighttime, day time etc.
* DESCRIBE THE SETTING; house, hillside, a boat on the sea, a prison cell; was it
cold, damp, musty, dark. Were there rats, spiders and cockroaches!
Be bold with your material. Show your excitement You want the kids to see how
excited you are about God's word! Don't be afraid to take chances in class and
risk feeling like a fool! Your alternative is to play it safe, keep your
composure, and basically have your kids lose interest in your class, AND YOU!

Make the lesson plan applicable to your children's lives or you'll lose them!.
Use vocabulary they can grasp.
.
Get the kids involved. Ask them quick yes or no questions. For the younger
classes you can have them supply sound affects. Whatever, just draw
them in!
Felt boards. Flash-a-Cards. Slides.
Costumes. Objects or Props. Videos.
We don't want to just give them knowledge. We want them to leave church
having heard a Bible story, but able to apply an aspect of that to their
lives today.

At the end of your class, ask yourself:
1. How well did I organize to teach this
class session?
2. How well did things go?
3. What happened for the students?
4. How could I make next time better?
