Large Primary/Junior Group: Present the Passage
 
Signal the beginning: Begin the passage presentation with a clear instruction that lets the students know it is time to listen. Be careful not to overshadow or distract from the presentation. Make sure the students have a clear, uncluttered view of the teacher or speaker.

Praise: Praise the students for their appropriate behavior.

Open your Bible: With your Bible open in front of you, tell the students that the Bible is God's Word, and its stories are true. Tell them the name of the book of the Bible for the day's passage, and have them find it in their Bibles.

Pray: Instruct them to bow their heads and hearts to God as you pray. Pray simply that God will help you tell the story the way He wants and that students will have open hearts to learn what God wants them to learn.

Begin: After praying, look as if you have something important to tell the students, and start immediately with your beginning statement.

Continue: Continue the passage presentation while watching for interest and attention levels of the students. Students who are openly disruptive should be removed and isolated by an assistant teacher or specially assigned helper (see below).

Conclude: Conclude the passage presentation with your ending statement, and praise the students for their good attention. Immediately begin the story questions.
