Students rotate to teaching teams, who present the same Bible story to 5 different groups in 5 separate sessions. Activities vary by age group. Adult or youth guides accompany students to each team’s area. If you have large numbers of children, you may need multiple teaching teams for each lesson. Preschoolers have separate classes. Specialty teachers may lead select activities. Key benefits to this option include: learning activities which are age-appropriate; teachers learn and prepare less content since they focus on one story, instead of five; fewer teachers may be needed; students meet and get to know many different adults and youth; specialty teachers can lessen the workload. Many VBS curriculums now provided needed resources for implementing site rotation.
