Twelve Powers Curriculum
The twelve powers curriculum is a full-year program. Every month for four weeks a new power is learned. We learn the place in the body where the power is located. We learn the color associated with that power. We learn the disciple that illuminates that power.
Each week, the lesson starts with the Bible verse and affirmation to learn the power of the month. The pre-session activity introduces the power as the children arrive. There is a meditation that is simple and to the point. An object lesson which helps to concretely show how that power works is presented to the children. There is a presentation about the power, story and discussion. Finally, several creative expressions are available to do to help inspire the knowing of that power. The lesson is ended with a prayer and/or a song.
Since each power is studied for four weeks, if a child misses a week, there is still an introduction and learning takes place. Also, each lesson introduces a different learning style to help each child personalize the power for him/herself. The learning styles used are auditory, visual, kinesthetic, social, emotional and cognitive. |
