Heads up, chins up

COMMUNITY FOCUS.

Motivation | Team Building | Empowerment


For some kids, Sunday School is the best time in their lives; for others, it is just a religious act that their parents made them attend. Once upon a time, there was a classroom full of eight-year-old kids, and they were Busy Bees. 


These kids just wanted to express themselves and did not know how to channel their energy into the particular setting of a Sunday School Class. So, I, Ms. Erreka, had to re-direct their energy to the class while ensuring the pupils felt “EMPOWERED.” The approach was and is always consistent. Provide principles that will be lasting in life and eternal…build the little ones up! 


So, we implemented the “Heads Up, Chin Up” strategy and routine, where they were all a special part of the army of the Lord. We fueled their esteem with how they were a valuable team member, and everyone was watching them, so they had to maintain excellent posture and manners. The kids bought into this effort hook, line, and sinker! 


They lifted their heads and chins and felt very proud to be a part of something bigger than themselves. This strategy was constantly tweaked to add or alter different parts of what the army needed to keep the kids engaged and focused, soothing their short attention span. It was simple yet effective, and each one felt valued and special.
