Sound Advice for Auditory Learners
My son, Ron loved his fifth grade teacher because she enjoyed storytelling, dramas and lively discussions. But he struggled with his sixth-grade teacher who gave assignments such as, “read three chapters and write a paper.” Because Ron and his fifth-grade teacher were auditory learners he thrived in her class.

Discipline for Discipleship
To avoid creating unnecessary discipline problems we need to plan our lessons with the development and personal needs of our students in mind. Long, dry lectures for juniors are futile since they lack opportunities to move and talk.
Above and Beyond
Preteens are on the go like never before. Any parent of an early adolescent knows this generation is a busy one with no shortage of activity in kids’ lives. Becki has a placard posted on her minivan visor that reads, “Mom’s Taxi.”
The Power of Words
You begin each class with unlimited power—power to build up or tear down. With just a few words you can create a sense of well-being or discourage the hearts of the children you reach.

Talking to Children about Addictions

Get Going!
We all know what happened on 9/11/01. What about 6/11/01? That is the day the United States Supreme Court ruled that Good News Clubs® can meet in public schools after school hours on the same terms as other community groups.
How did God Make the Earth?
Most kids learn in school that the earth changed little by little, bit by bit-in a process called evolution. Some teachers say a “Big Bang” happened and this world was the result. But as Christians we believe God created the heavens and the earth by His mighty power (Gen. 1:1).
