AWANA
AWANA At Home 2020-2021
Bethel, Alaska
This year’s AWANA will be done virtually. Parents are expected to help your children understand and complete the weekly bookwork. Leaders will be contacting students weekly to encourage and help in understanding. Weekly videos can be found on www.AwanaPlus.com for Trek and T&T. Those relevant to the lessons we are using are linked on this page (just click the blue wording to access it).
$25 per kid. Max $50 per family. This will help cover awards, badges and books. There are scholarships available for kids who are unable to afford the entire fee.
There is an optional weekly worship session on zoom for fellowship and encouragement. The student handbooks will not be covered. Awards and accomplishments will be celebrated. Max time will be about 30 minutes on Tuesday nights, 7pm.
Tuesday Nights: 7 PM Zoom worship and celebration of work done.
10 minutes of worship: Please mute yourself and sing along at home.
10 minutes of devotional/object lesson.
5-10 minutes awards celebration.
10 minutes: Possible break out room to connect with friends & leaders. Each club would meet in the break out rooms 1 out of 3 weeks. Rotating weeks Cubbies, Sparks, and T&T.
AWANA Dollars will be awarded this year. However, children will not receive physical dollars. All dollars will be awarded based on completed sections.
Kids can earn up to $2 a section; one for that week’s verse and for the review verse. Over the year they can make $64.
Motivated students can make up to about $80 if they do extra:
For Sparks- they will be given $1 for each extra credit verse completed.
For T&T and Trek clubs – they have review sections (each review has 8 verse). The review is worth $5 AWANA bucks.
For Cubbies and Puggles have fewer available $ to earn over the year- but that is why they have a different price for many of the awards.
Students will be able to redeem their money through the AWANA store at the end of the year. At this point- we are planning the same text store that we did last year. Some of the items will be the same but I plan on buying more items. If you have ideas that may be good for the store- pass those ideas my way, please.
The $40 camp award will still be available for children who are 9 and older and complete an entire book plus all review sections.
Weekly Plan
- Read the student book together
- Review and memorize that week’s verse
- Say the review verse from the week before
- Check in weekly with your leader
