What's inside?

Originally written for Oak Crest Baptist Church, a Southern Baptist church in Midlothian, Texas, Rotation Sunday School: A Firm Foundation is the starting point for a six-year Sunday School curriculum. In this book you will find a comprehensive scope and sequence on which to build a rotation Sunday School.

Inside this book you will find seventy-two monthly lessons for teachers. Each lesson includes lesson objectives, Bible background, memory verse, suggested hymns and songs, and student age considerations. Also included is a sample six-year lesson cycle calendar that can be used as a starting point is planning your Sunday School. Activities for each rotation have not been included as the rotations vary from church-to-church.

Sample Lesson

Parent Cards

My wife came up with the idea of parent cards to complement the lessons. While I was writing this for Oak Crest Baptist Church, I made cards for each of the 72 lessons. I placed four cards to each 8.5 x 11 piece of paper, making it easy to photocopy. I wanted to include them in the book, but the format (only 8x10) made it difficult. Also, considering the $5 or so increase in the retail price because of adding 72 more pages meant that the parent cards were impractical.

The cards are designed to be reproduced on a photocopier. the cards were somewhat secondary to the curriculum and have not been through as much proofreading and scrutiny as the book itself. I apologize for any typos in advance. I have labeled each file by lesson number. Please refer to the book to locate the file or files that you wish to download.

Other Applications

While written for use in a rotation Sunday School, the foundational and modular nature of this curriculum lends itself to other applications.

It can easily be used as the Bible study foundation for a weekly after school club. With seventy-two lessons, it would provide enough material for two school years. It could also be adapted for use in Backyard Bible clubs or used as a filler curriculum during summer months when normal programs do not meet.

Older Homeschoolers could use it as a Bible study course. Again, the seventy-two lessons could be easily spread out over two years. Parents could also study the material for Bible studies with younger children. The student applications could be easily adapted into test questions.

How are you using it?

I am very curious to know how people are using this book? Are you using it in an application other than Sunday School? Did you use it to get ideas for your own lessons? Inquiring minds want to know.
