Teaching  Guidelines

 

­    Pray for your ministry!

­    Help each child get the possible bible-based start in life.

­    Be prepared.  Don’t be late.  Always be there before the class starts.

­    Be strong and courageous.  With the Lord, you can do all things.

­    Be enthusiastic.

­    Praise the kids when they do it right.

­    Communicate real love.

­    Involve kids in learning.  Kids want to interact with you.

­    To Young kids:  Keep your body same height as they talk to you.

­    Decorate your room with teaching material, photos, their works but not over do it.

­    Arrange seating.  Make sure their feet won’t kick kids in front. Separate two troublemakers.

­    Helpers need to involve in helping, not distracting the kids.

­    Make sure everyone can see you so they won’t be daydreaming.

­    No more rules than the age of the kids.  Get a uniform rule.

­    Stop, wait until they are quiet, to proceed.

­    Post rules in every classroom and make sure all the kids know it.

­    All the teachers will be called “ Mr., Mrs., Miss”.  Train them to be respectful.

­    Ask them to raise their hands before talk.

­    Don’t name the trouble kids in public prayer.

­    Use a soft song to slow them down.

­    Don’t yell!  Lower your voice to get attention.

­    Picture is worth a thousand words.  Use teaching aide to get attention.

­    Young kids: when they hear, they forget; when they see, they remember; when they do, they understand. Use object to teach.

­    Ask the kids to help with the cleaning afterwards.
