I have some ideas to share to help planning your Sunday school activities. These suggestions work for all age groups, especially your preteens and teens. The goal of course is to grab their attention and hold their interest.
Sunday School Activities & Tips for Teachers: Use Technology
Your Sunday school students stay engaged and involved when you use things they are familiar with, such as technology! Research interactive Christian websites that your students can browse and learn from, or bring in Christian DVDs or CDs. While you might not feel technologically qualified enough to lead a group of young people, they will have no problem showing you how it should be done.
For older kids, the video game Peacemaker is an excellent way to fuse learning with fun. It is a strategy video game with the goal of bringing peace to Israel and Palestine. This would work well with a lesson on war and peace, the consequences, and the solutions.
Power Point is another great way to use technology. It also helps students practice reading. This keeps their interest and allows you to both read aloud and have them read silently, increasing the number of senses they engage and the possibility of the lesson sinking in.
