Role Play
Make a copy of the Role Play Cards, then cut them apart. Read over all the scenarios and choose the ones that are most appropriate for your class. Note that two of the cards call for the children to think up a situation where someone their age would be tempted.
Act It Out: Make up skits about how to deal with temptations.
Depending on the size of your class, divide the children into groups of two to four children. Try to pair newcomers with regular attendees. It may also be helpful to pair boys with boys and girls with girls.
Give each group a Role Play Card containing a scenario that you think each particular group can relate to. (Note that two of the cards call for the children to think up a situation where someone their age would be tempted.) Encourage the groups to work quickly, giving them about 5 minutes to create a skit about the scenario. During that time, check on their progress and give suggestions as necessary.
After about 5 minutes, have the groups volunteer to read their scenarios, then perform their skit for the rest of the class. Clap for each skit, then ask the class to discuss other ways that children could deal with that particular temptation.
