Nicodemus (John 3)

2 things to do when you don’t see your story referenced here in software:

1. Contact neil@sundaysoftware.com. There is always another way.

2. Use my handy decision matrix:

a) Is there a good memory verse? Then consider using Cal & Marty Scripture Memory Game CD

b) Is there an exceptional visual image to work with? Then consider using Kid Pix.

c) Is there dialog to work with or could be imagined as if the writer had left it out? Use Let’s Talk CD.

d) Is the long passage in need of condensing by the students to its keywords words? Let’s Talk.

e) Does the passage or concept have a lot of quizzable details and words? Jericho Quiz software or Crosswords or Wordsearch

PARABLES: Lost Coin/Sheep, Good Sam, Prodigal, Sower, Talent/Pounds, Thankful Leper, Vineyard

Lost Sheep/Coin

  • Play and Learn (sheep) for non-readers
  • Charlie Church Mouse (coin) for non-readers
  • Rewrite and illustrate the story in Kid Pix 3 using different imagery than sheep/shepherd. How would you tell it in our day?
  • Create a “Where’s Waldo” -like sheep puzzle in Kid Pix. Create a sheep maze.
  • Our Prodigal Son CD is the quintessential “lost” parable.

Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10)

  • Good Sam the Samaritan CD
  • Life and Ministry of Jesus: good chart about people’s attitudes toward Samaritan (CD now out of print)
  • Interactive Parables CD has a game about it.

Parable of the Talents (the servant who buries his master’s money), Stewardship

  • Awesome Bible Stories CD www.sundaysoftware.com/awesome
  • Interactive Parables CD has a game about it.

Parable of the Thankful Leper (Ten Lepers)

  • Not specifically found in any Jesus software. Use Let’s Talk CD to create a talking version of the story set in modern situation. Create dialog that imagines & speaks dialog between the 9 lepers and the 1 who decides to return. Imagine dialog between the lepers and the priests concerning who Jesus is, how he had the power, etc. Could also use KidPix to create a project.

Parable of Workers in the Vineyard

  • A perfect story for Let’s Talk. There’s so much GRUMBLING in this story which goes unspoken. And it’s a story about “fairness” which older children are concerned about. “Does God play favorites?” Kids can give voice to it. You could create a talking lesson with a quiz and discussion questions for the story. Then afterwards, you can have the kids turn on the “Talk Now” module and create answers your questions. How does the church “play favorites” …or not? Are kids treated as non-members? etc etc. How do you treat new kids in the class? How do you help others in the class that may not know as much as you about these stories?

Other Parables —

  • Interactive Parables CD has 24 quizzes about 24 parables. But note:This is a 3d game CD for older students that can take over 35 minutes to play per story.

MISC SAYINGS: Who am I? On this Rock, Great Commandment, Peace Be With You

 “Who do men say that I am?” …and… “On this rock I will build my church”

  • Walking in Their Sandals Atlas, Caesarea Philipi extraordinary video lesson and map with text.
  • HolyLand 3-D CD allows you to “fly in” to Mt Hermon right above Caesarea Philippi in a spectacular way. (CD now out of print)

The Great COMMANDMENT, Matthew 22:36-40

  • If ever there was a verse that kids should memorize, the Great Commandment is it. Use Cal & Marty’s Scripture Memory Game after you’ve done some discussion about Loving God, Loving Others. See my lesson example for the Great C on the bottom of the Cal & Marty description page. The Great Commandment is also ‘seen’ along the trail up Mt. Sinai in the Ten Commandments CD. Note: the word “Great” is the word “Mega” in the Greek, which can also be translated as “large, loud, awesome.” Quite a visual word if you were going to illustrate it in Kid Pix.

Jesus the Good Shepherd – John 10

  • Use Kid Pix to illustrate “I am the gate” How is Jesus like “a gate” …what is he standing/laying between? I would also suggest you teach the story of the Shepherd who goes out to find the one lost sheep. Two halves of the same important concept.

Jesus Appears saying Peace Be With You — John 20

  • Use Let’s Talk CD to rephrase Jesus’ greeting and invitation to be touched.

  • Video statements from the Thief on the Cross, Nicodemus, Rich Young Ruler, Pharisee.
  • RACE, Prejudice, Self Esteem, Practicing your Faith. Link to Actual Reality Outline at www.sundaysoftware.com/act.htm

Teaching about Mission… use our Elijah & Jonah CD

  • Elijah & the Widow of Zarephath = God’s message & prophet goes beyond the boundaries to change a non-believer, an “outsider”.
  • Jonah = his reluctant mission to the Ninevites. God’s compassion and priorities.

Misc Bible and Christian Topics

•Worship –see my suggestions for teaching about Worship with software Attack of the Sunday School Zombies CD –about the right reasons and attitude to bring to church and coming to worship.

•Prayer –see my software and lesson suggestions for teaching About Prayer and the Lord’s Prayer.

•Kingdom of God …so many of Jesus’ parables and teachings are about the Kingdom of God/Heaven. I’ve created four different Kingdom of God computer lab lesson plans and included video suggestions and drama/skits.

•Tribes of Israel, Jewish Traditions –use Quiz software such as Bible Grand Slam and Fall of Jericho CDs, or Bible CrossWords and WordSearch CDs to create quizzes and puzzles about the tribes, locations, vocabulary of the traditions, Holy Days, etc -related to the subject. Kids can create based on some discussion and reading, or teachers can create for the kids. Play on the computer or print out. Pathways Through Jerusalem CD’s “Tammar” tour guide of Jewish history. Some interesting things there too. Jewish Traditions

Teaching stories that have a lot of dialog, new vocabulary, long story lines, info:

•Use Quiz Software, Bible Crosswords & Word Games Software

•Let’s Talk CD …the program that let’s you or your students create a lesson & quiz or dialog which the computer can speak out loud. It’s particularly great for working in verses and stories where there is dialog and you want the kids to “re-script” the dialog in a new way (such as “in their own words” or “what were the people thinking to themselves during the story?” See our numerous lesson sketches that illustrate how to use Let’s Talk, including “How Few Can You Do” –the long passage condensing game.

Why come to church?

  • “Attack of the Sunday School Zombies” CD is our a software game about the right reasons to come to worship and Sunday School.

Paul…in The Books of Acts

  • Life of Paul (Interactive Kids Series) See my two printable lesson plans/student handouts for this CD linked at www.sundaysoftware.com/lifeof
  • Stephen is briefly mentioned in Life of Paul CD. Use Let’s Talk to give voice to ~ recreate Stephen’s amazing speech. “What is it about the Gospel that made the religious leaders so mad?”
  • Charlie Church Mouse #2 has Paul’s Journey to Rome
  • Paul in the Philippi Jail: Use the “Conversation Now” mode in Let’s Talk to create onscreen characters (Paul and the Jailer) who create the dialog between Paul and the Jailer after the earthquake.
  • There are some Paul journey maps and NT books charts/quizzes tucked away in Life of Christ CD.
  • See several good Paul lesson suggestions at the END of our Pentecost page

…on the Road to Damascus:

  • If you don’t have Life of Paul CD, consider these options: 1. Younger kids illustrate the “blinding light” and “something like fish scales” in Kid Pix. Such dramatic visuals! 2. Older kids use Let’s Talk CD to speak on behalf of Paul’s traveling companions. How do you know it was really Jesus? It’s a trick! The underlying question being “how would people around you react to your confession/salvation, change of heart?” What would they say to you, and you to them? What did the man at the house think when Saul was brought to him? What questions did he have? What might he been afraid of? What must have been going through Saul’s heart? What in YOUR LIFE is “like fish scales” covering up your God-sight? Assign computers/students to work on a variety of questions surrounding this amazing event.

CORNELIUS and PETER

  • Imagine how the guy had to EXPLAIN himself to others. He’s superiors, his men in the barracks. Imagine him explaining to his “household” why he wanted them baptized. and…What would some of his peers (unbelievers) have said to him about wanting to be baptized? Cornelius has a lot of explaining he must do.
  • Possible Computer lab software/ideas:

1. Create a set of new scripture verses where Cornelius explains himself. Try to create one verse as a “Memory Verse”. Edit this new memory verse into Cal & Marty’s Scripture Memory Game CD.

2. Use Kid Pix to draw the faces of all the people Cornelius had to answer to. Add text (which Kid Pix can speak out loud) of their protestations against Cornelius (put-downs about baptism or his new faith).

3. Use Let’s Talk CD to retell the story from CORNELIUS’ point of view. Create an animated character in that program to be Cornelius and write him dialog which the computer program will have him speak out loud. This can be done simply enough in the “Talk Now” module, or more elaborately in the “Lesson Builder” module complete with 3 spoken Quiz questions and 3 spoken questions for discussion.

PAUL’s OTHER NEW TESTAMENT WRITINGS…

  • Memorable Bible verses lend themselves to being learned in Cal & Marty’s Scripture Memory Game CD. If they have visuals to them, such as the Fruits of the Spirit listed below, or “Body of Christ,” they can be drawn in Kid Pix, If they have debate/arguments in them, as many of Paul’s letters do, they can be rephrased/debated in Let’s Talk CD. If they have a strong VISUAL component, such as the “Armor of God” they are a natural for Kid Pix, but I would also treat the “armor” verses as a memory verse as well and include the scripture memory CD in the lesson as well. It depends on the verse!

Galatians 5: Fruits of the Spirit…

  • This is a fun idea which is similar idea to our Pentecost with Pirates idea) Make the fruits teach their meaning in fruit language. Use Kid Pix to draw the fruit. Draw talk bubble above the fruit, then use the talking text tool to add explanation as if the fruit is explaining itself. Example: The banana said gentleness was very “appealing” …the grapes said _____ was juicy because… etc. Helping the kids pick the IDEAL fruit to each of the “fruits” in the passage and then making it express itself in its own fruit vocabulary is an exercise in understanding and interpreting.

Philippians 2:5-11 “Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus…”

  • I have a wonderful memory verse and “How Low Can You Go? computer game idea outlined at www.sundaysoftware.com/lent.htm

Timothy & Titus CD –while mostly a challenging 3d game starring these two Bible heroes, the storyline does illuminate their participation and the challenges in spreading the Gospel in the Early Church. Takes over an hour to complete.

Other New Testament Letters

  • James, Colossians, Philippians… Use Cal and Marty’s Scripture Memory Game CD The Professor’s Library in Life of Christ CD has some “about” presentations and quizzes on these books. Also, email Neil about other software suggestions for NT Letters. Include your scripture passage.
