# **Why should you use a lectionary Sunday school model?**

- **Extend what kids learn in church to Sunday school**  
  Help kids understand what they're learning in worship by featuring the scripture in your Sunday school lesson!
- **Help kids learn the church year**  
  Give them a clear understanding of what the church seasons are and how to relate to our lives. 
- **Give parents resources to continue teaching**  
  Use at-home resources for parents to continue teaching lectionary outside of church.
