Children Learning

Sunday School Curriculum: Children ages three to Kindergarten are taught using Biblezone Live! This curriculum is based on telling the foundational stories of our faith.

Those in grades one through five use Cornerstones * a rotation-based curriculum that focuses on Bible stories and themes.

An important element of our Sunday School curriculum is how the material is taught. The House of Hope uses the Workshop Rotation Model. In this model, each story or theme is taught in units of three to five weeks. Teachers stay in one room and teach the lesson, with age-based modifications, while the children rotate through the various classrooms * one per week. The classrooms are designed to present the material in a variety of ways, thus accommodating different learning styles. Our classrooms include:

  1. arts and crafts;
  2. drama and puppetry;
  3. audio-visual;
  4. computers; and
  5. games and music; stories, History and Geography of the Bible; science, cooking and other messy things.
