Welcome to the Workshop Rotation Ideas and Lesson Exchange
Your source for free creative Sunday school lessons! We are the official website and organization for Workshop Rotation Model (WoRM), -a creative way to organize Sunday School. You are welcome to cut & paste from our thousands of volunteer created Rotation-style Sunday School lessons, creative ideas, and articles. Please also take the time to post your own great lessons and ideas.
...because a group of volunteers just finished helping Wormy our Editor review and improve the Miracles of Jesus Lesson Forum!
The group also recently renovated the Parables forum as well.
Your 2013 Volunteer Board is: Front: Jaymie Derden, Carol Hulbert, Luanne Payne (President)

About the Content at Our Site
We've been collecting Sunday School ideas, lesson outlines, and complete lesson plans for over a decade. Rotation Modelers are GLEANERS, ...looking for good ideas, knowing we will make them better, and make them our own. Thus, we welcome all creative contributions.
If you're looking for cellophane-wrapped lessons, you've come to the wrong place. But if you like to glean, make better, share, and be inspired, then welcome to Rotation.org!
Rotation Modelers look for lessons and ideas with creative teaching media and techniques that drive home the main point of the Bible story. We also hope to see life application activities, and not just talk. As you post, please keep that in mind.

Example of a typical four week rotation for 3 different grade groups. Grades rotate, teachers stay-put repeating their lesson. You can add more grade groups by adding additional workshops, such as, Computer, Cooking, or Storytelling. You can let the Preschool or teens use the "open" workshop slots.
