Unit 4 for 5-7s looks at the subject of 'Living in God's family - Jesus' teaching from Matthew'.
The child's component is a set of Pop-ups. These Pop-ups are pictures which are put together each week to create a diorama of Jesus teaching. Each picture that is added to the diorama reinforces that week's teaching.
This child's component accompanies the Click Unit 4: 5-7s Leaders Manual. There is also a Leader's Pack available.
CLICK is a Bible-based programme for teaching and discipling children from 3-11 years. The CLICK curriculum is based on the belief that the Bible’s own theological framework should direct what is taught and how it is taught. CLICK is Bible-based, teaching the major events, concepts and doctrines of the Bible. It’s also great fun!

We find the click books useful as a good starting point for the lesson, especially to help teachers who are less experienced. They give a structure for a 10 week block of lessons. There are lots of ideas for the lesson in the click books that can help, but as with any other teaching resource that you have not written yourself, it is essential to make it your own, and use what would be suitable for the children you teach.
Brilliant resource and makes everything really easy and the planning much more straightforward. As another reviewer has mentioned - It would be beneficial if the units for ages 3-5 and 5-7 followed the same topic throughout the different age ranges as if you want to combine teachings with the 3-5 yr group and have some separate activities for ages 5-7, or vice versa, it makes things much more difficult as both are not based on the same topic and thus would require more leaders and helpers to facilitate separate activities & teachings.
Despite our church being in Germany the components arrived really quickly. Making a 3D scene of Jesus teaching on a mountain is good fun and rather different than most crafts. The children can see the scene developing over the weeks. The only slight disadvantage is that is doesn't take that long to cut out and stick on, so we usually have another craft or activity planned for after the story.
We love this material. The only thing we find a problem with it is that the different age groups cover different material so when we have all the ages together (which we do once a month) we end up having to do something completely different. It would be better if the different ages covered the same topics each week.
Only criticism is that it often presumes you have done everything each week and refers back to it in future weeks. We do however work round about this and would highly recommend the material. Would be useful if every unit followed the same topic throughout the different age ranges.
Easy to use, child friendly brilliant resource for Sunday Schools!
