BE A "DOING" CLASS

Meet Walter

During the Bible class workshop, Creating Memories, I introduced Walter.

He was used to demonstrate the different ways children learn.  I emphasized in the workshop the importance of using a variety of teaching methods so we do not leave children out of the learning. 

Statistics

Picture
  • If we use auditory only, 20% will remember.  
  • That is only 2 out of 10 children that will remember the lesson.  
  • Eight children will not even remember the Bible lesson.

Picture
  • If we add visuals to the lesson, we jump up to 50% of the children remembering the lesson.  
  • That is 5 out of 10 children.  
  • That is better, but we are still leaving out 5 students.  

Picture
  • Now, if we add an activity to the lesson or as I said in the workshop, “DOING”, we are now at 90%.
  • That means 9 out of 10 will remember the lesson.

Example

This is an example of a “doing” activity that I wanted to share.  We did a fun role-play of Elijah going up in the whirlwind.   The children loved seeing the long whirlwind hanging from the ceiling.

It turned out even better than I had imagined.  The children were actually able to go round and round with the whirlwind.  They will remember this lesson!
