In a rotational learning setting, the same Bible story or theme is taught for several weeks. Each week, learners rotate to a different station. The story remains the same, but children encounter it in different ways in each station. By having children explore a story or concept in different settings, the more it is reinforced throughout the unit. Rotational learning is exciting for the student and teacher alike, as teachers teach to their strengths and students experience Bible stories in the ways that they learn best. Rotational learning is grounded in the work of Howard Gardner in Multiple Intelligences Theory.
At KFUMC, we have chosen a theme for our Rotational Sunday School Program and its stations: "The River, where God's Wisdom Flows". The stations have the following names: The Genesis Theater (Media), Parable Play House (Drama/Story), Bible.com (Computer), Temple Tunes (Music/Movement), Loaves and Fishes (Cooking), The Potter’s Workshop (Art) and Creation Station (Science).
