Foundation Blocks isn’t about the advanced stuff or deep theology, it’s about laying a simple and solid foundation of Biblical basics.
So if you’re interested in laying a solid foundation for your Sunday School kids, you’re in the right place and Foundation Blocks curriculum is for you. Below is an overview and concept of Foundations Blocks. Click on any of the images to enlarge them and make reading the smaller details easier.
Foundation Blocks curriculum consists of 52 lessons, which works out to 1 full calendar year of teaching material if you’re interested in that.
The lessons are broken up into 12 different series blocks, each containing either 2, 4 or 6 lessons, focusing on different specific foundational topics. The beauty of Foundation Blocks is in how flexible it is. All lessons are available together in a series bundle, or they can be singled out and downloaded individually.
Let’s plan out how to lay a solid foundation:
Option A: Sometimes following a set curriculum syllabus is great. Lay down (teach) Foundation Blocks in this order from January-December.
Option B: Sometimes you want the flexibility to teach other things, take breaks or rearrange a teaching series to accommodate your schedule. Pick and choose series blocks or individual lessons and teach them whenever you want. You can still lay down foundational content, but you have control over when and where you place down the blocks.
