The 90 Min Literacy Block: Small Group Instruction
This is the second post in a blog series on the SoR 90-Minute Literacy Block and it focuses on small group instruction. In it, I discuss why small group instruction is important and explain how t o group your students for small group instruction. I identify literacy skills to teach in small group and offer a list of science of reading-aligned resources designed for small group instruction. Finally, I leave you with a FREE, downloadable small group lesson planning template for kindergarten, first or second grade.
In my last post, I outlined a suggested schedule for your 90-minute science of reading-aligned literacy block. Today I am excited to focus on just one part of the block, your small group instruction .
Small group instruction is one of the key ways we can support our students and help increase achievement, but it isn’t always easy to pull off. It requires careful lesson planning, regular shuffling of student grouping, and strong management.
Today I’m excited to provide you with information and resources that will help you successfully implement small groups in your classroom. I’ll first share why small group instruction is important and explain how to group your students. I’ll then identify specific skills that you should teach in small groups and offer a list of science of reading-aligned resources designed for small group instruction. Finally, I’ll leave you with a FREE, downloadable small group lesson plan template to help you get your groups up and running!
Why is Small Group Instruction Important?
Research has found that small group instruction has a significant impact on student learning. Small groups allow you to provide explicit, targeted instruction to students based on their identified needs. It is an opportunity for students to receive the additional teaching and practice that is often needed for them to master the skills we teach.
Additionally, small group instruction allows a teacher to monitor student actions more closely and to provide frequent and individualized feedback. Correct responses receive immediate and specific reinforcement, while incorrect responses should be met with immediate corrective feedback.
Teaching in small groups allows you to perform informal assessments and collect data that helps drive your instruction. Watch closely as your students attempt a task to get a clear sense of their understandings and misconceptions.
Finally, students love their time in small groups. Of course, they love having your full attention. The immediate feedback you provide helps to build a connection and can boost students’ confidence.
How to Group Students for Small Group Instruction
Many teachers are unsure of how to group their students since we have begun to move away from leveled readers. The science of reading tells us that small groups should be grouped and regrouped by a shared skill deficit .
To properly group your students, you need a strong assessment system. You need data from a universal screener to identify students who might be at risk of difficulties in learning. This will give you a general sense of how to group students. Diagnostic assessments are then used to confirm the initial screening results. They help you to refine your groupings by determining a student’s specific difficulties. Finally, weekly progress monitoring and observation will help you adjust your groups. They are flexible. As needs change, groups change.
Phonics Screeners for Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd Grade
I recommend these Phonics Screeners bundle for Kindergarten 1st and 2nd grade to assess your students’ phonics skills. This resource includes a variety of screeners and has everything you need to group students working at a Kindergarten, first, or second-grade level.
This bundle of K-2 assessments includes phonics screeners for:
- Phonemic Awareness Screener (for K and 1st grade)
- Letter & Grapheme Identification
- Reading Survey
- Spelling Survey
- Autofill Student Data Trackers and MORE!!
In addition to helping you group students, these screeners can be used as a diagnostic tool at reading benchmark periods (BOY, MOY, EOY), for report cards, or as a pre-assessment and post-assessment to measure student growth.
Click here to take a closer look at everything included in the K-2 Phonics Screeners Bundle !
Skills to Teach in Small Groups
In a small group, you provide students with targeted remediation and review that they need to master the skill you have identified as their need. Skills you will work on in small groups include:
- Phonemic awareness
- Decoding and Fluency
- Comprehension
- Word study/spelling
Science of Reading-Aligned Activities for Small Group Instruction
The following resources are designed to be used in small groups. They are engaging, LOW-PREP activities that target the skills you will teach in small groups AND they are aligned to the science of reading.
Phonemic Awareness Lesson Plans for Kindergarten and 1st Grade
My Science of Reading-aligned Phonemic Lesson Plans for Kindergarten and First Grade students have EVERYTHING you need to bring effective phonemic awareness instruction to your small groups!
The resource includes:
💕 Phonemic Awareness Lesson Plans Aligned to a Scope and Sequence
With this resource, you’ll get lesson plans laid out in a weekly format.
Each daily lesson plan includes a warm-up for the target skill and three activities.
- Phoneme Segmenting : students practice breaking apart each word and identifying each phoneme
- Phoneme Blending : students hear a sequence of phonemes and put them together to identify the word
- Connecting Graphemes to Phonemes : students practice connecting the phonemes in a spoken word to the letters (graphemes) that represent those sounds.
💕 Picture Word Mats
The picture word mats provide a visual representation of the words in the Connecting Phonemes to Graphemes section. This support helps students to build meaning of the words .
💕 Screener Assessments
You’ll get a two-part screener for each unit that will identify whether each student can segment and blend phonemes, as well as a spelling inventory assessment that would be given whole-group.
💕 Class Data Tracker and MORE!!
You can read more about the importance of phonemic awareness and download a free sample of this resource here .
Word Mapping – Connecting Phonemes to Graphemes
Word mapping is a physical way to represent the relationship between the phonemes and graphemes. It allows students to physically connect or match the letters with the sounds they represent. Ultimately, it helps build word recognition and decoding skills that improve fluency in both reading and writing . Students find word-mapping activities highly engaging because they have both visual and kinesthetic aspects.
My printable and digital Word Mapping Resource has EVERYTHING you need to get students mapping words in your classroom. This resource also includes mapping boards and word image cards for your small-group instruction.
Phonics Word Sort s
Word sorts require students to think about how words work by drawing their attention to common spelling patterns. Students receive a set of words that all have something in common. They must identify the feature and sort them accordingly.
Research on information-processing tells us that students need to spend time elaborating and summarizing their new learning in order to store it in their long-term memory. For this reason, the “what did you notice” section of this activity is key, as is the discussion that may take place after the word sort. Both help students to verbalize the new learning that applies to spelling.
My digital and printable phonics word sorts include two levels of sorts: whole words and words with the missing target spelling pattern to assign to your students. Students will look for common spelling patterns, sort, then communicate what they notice and have learned about the words they’ve sorted. You can take a closer look at them here .
Decodable Passages or Decodable Books with Comprehension Questions
The science of reading shows us that the connection between what our students learn in phonics and what they read is imperative for building a strong foundation in early reading. The text in these decodable books and decodable passages resources are a phonics-based controlled text that contain target phonics skill words, previously taught phonics skill words and irregular high-frequency words. The comprehension questions help to bring discussion about text and writing into your small group instruction. The resources also include activities for before, after and during reading.
While these two separate resources do follow the same research-based scope and sequence, they do not include the same texts. The passages and stories are different, giving you more options for your instruction.
Dictation Practice
Dictation is a whole or small group activity that offers students guided spelling practice. It is a systematic way for you to connect the skills you teach in reading to student writing. Just as decodable texts allow students to apply the phonics skills you have taught to their reading, dictation practice allows them to apply the skills to their writing.
Dictation is not an assessment. It allows you to check students’ understanding of sound-spelling correspondences. Your dictation exercise will contain the sounds they are just learning, as well as review words from previous weeks. Dictation gives them the extra practice they need to reach mastery. When there are errors, provide immediate corrective feedback.
If you are looking for a simple way to bring dictation practice into your small groups my Yearlong Dictation Resource for Kindergarten, first and/or second grade is all you need!
This resource follows a research-based scope and sequence and includes dictation practice activities for each week of the school year.
Each week includes 2 teacher guides that highlight the week’s focus skill and previously learned phonics skills. In addition, students get practice with heart words (irregularly spelled high-frequency words) in the sentence portion.
A lesson outline for teacher guidance and sample lessons are also included. The resource includes a variety of student dictation recording sheets so you can choose the one that works best for your students.
Take a closer look at this Yearlong Dictation Resource here .
“What are the other kids doing while I work with my small group?”
This is is a question that gets asked frequently! The answer is they are engaging in intentional literacy center activities that reinforce skills you have already taught . These activities are not new learning, they are not skills the students are still acquiring. They are skills that you have seen them perform successfully and accurately when they are with you. This ensures they can work independently and you can focus your attention on your small group.
Now you may be wondering…if they can already perform the skills successfully, then why do they need more practice? The truth is, we often underestimate the amount of practice and repetition it takes for students to master the skills we teach . According to Wiley Blevins, in order for a skill to stick, it must be purposefully and systematically reviewed for 4-6 weeks. Literacy centers offer students the practice and review they need for mastery.
Keep in mind, that literacy centers and rotations are not something you just hop right into. They involve routines and expectations that must be explicitly taught and practiced. Take a look at this blog post for tips on how to introduce your literacy centers and build independence.

Free Lesson Plan Templates for Teachers (Editable)
As a teacher, a lesson plan is an invaluable tool for teaching. A lesson plan is a document that assists the teachers in organizing their lesson material, as well as helps them assess the overall learning experience of the students. Teachers plan their lessons ahead of time using a lesson plan template. A well-organized lesson plan will ensure clarity regarding the material being taught, and the students and the teacher can keep track of the different modules throughout the lesson plan.
It outlines the tasks and activities involved in the lesson, the objective of the material being taught, a clear timeline of how the teacher and students will progress through the lesson, and a detailed list of the materials and resources to be used for the lesson. It also lets the students know how they will be assessed for each module and the lesson. You can use variations depending on whether the lesson will be done over a day, a week, or a couple of months.
Why is Lesson Planning Important?
The purpose of creating a lesson plan is for the teacher to make the most out of their time with their students, ensuring they are as prepared as they can be. It also helps to adapt to unexpected issues as you progress through the lesson plan. It is a beneficial tool if you have students who learn at different speeds, allowing you to create a balanced plan that all students will understand. Each lesson plan that you create should build upon the previous lesson in a seamless manner.
Advantages of using a lesson plan
There are benefits for both teachers and students when using a well-planned lesson plan. Lesson plans will ensure the students’ success and contribute to the teacher’s success. Creating a successful lesson plan means that you, as an educator, have achieved your goal of supporting your students.
There are four ways in which a lesson plan can be beneficial:
Boosts your confidence
When you have a lesson plan, it lets you stay in control of how the lesson flows. This gives you more confidence in your ability to relay what is needed for each lesson. When you look confident, it inspires students, who can remain focused on what they are learning and stay on top of things.
Evaluate your lessons
Using a lesson plan allows you to review how well the plan worked. By evaluating the lesson plan, you can make changes that will improve your performance as a teacher. In addition, you can review the teaching methods you have used and see if a different method may work better for future planning.
Organization
The main goal of a lesson plan is to keep things organized so that the lesson doesn’t get off track. In addition, it gives you and your students a visual of the steps that will need to be followed as you move through the lesson. When a lesson is not organized correctly, it opens the door for students to fall behind, not understand the lesson, or misbehave due to a lack of focus.
A guide for substitute teachers
If you have ever had a substitute teacher fill in for a class, you may have seen that they were not adequately prepared, letting students have a free period rather than carry on with the lesson they were learning. A lesson plan is an excellent tool for substitute teachers because it lets them pick up where the original teacher left off.
Types: 5 Types of Lesson Plans
A lesson plan can vary from one class to the next and will depend upon some key factors, such as how complex the lesson is, whether you want to plan things far ahead, and the grade level of the students you teach.
There are five main types of the lesson plan that you can use:
A daily lesson plan covers what will be learned on each day of the week. This means that you will create five separate plans per school week. This type of lesson plan is best when you will be covering a different topic each day. It will outline the lesson’s objective and typically has an assessment after the lesson for that day to help see if the students understood the objective and the material taught.
A weekly lesson plan will cover one whole week and allow five consecutive periods to be covered and completed by the end of the week. This is a good lesson plan for topics that will take more than a day to cover. Materials and content are taught at the start of the week. Then, in the middle of the week, students will have the opportunity to implement what they have learned with a test or assessment at the end of the week to see how well the students have understood the material.
A unit lesson plan covers the duration from two weeks to two months, depending on the complexity of the class. In addition, a unit lesson plan covers a broader range of content and lets the teacher set the pace of learning by assessing how much time will be needed for each topic in the unit. This is a perfect lesson plan when you have to teach the same material to different class levels, allowing you to adjust time frames according to the student’s ability in different classes.
Content area
A content area lesson plan is best for teachers teaching several daily subjects. It allows you to create multiple plans, such as a plan for History, English, Math, Science, and so on. Elementary school teachers use this type of template because one teacher teaches all subjects in the same classroom. It allows them to outline each subject that they will teach their class.
Grade level
A grade-level lesson plan is typically used for grades 6 to 12, where teachers teach the same subject for different grades. The lesson plan is set out differently for each grade level. For example, one teacher may teach 7 th -grade Math during the first part of the day and then teach 8 th -grade Math during the second part of the day. Each lesson plan is created specifically for those grade levels and contains different content.
Essentials of a Lesson Plan
As mentioned earlier, each lesson plan layout will differ from one teacher to the next, depending on what they are teaching. However, there are a few key components that every lesson plan should have:
Learning outcomes
The learning outcome describes what you want the students to have learned as a result of what you will teach them.
Learning plan
The learning plan is the structure you will use, such as activity time frames, what role the students will play, what role the teacher will play, and the method you will use to teach the students, etc.
This will outline two things: before the class begins, you must determine what you will use as a baseline to assess the student’s understanding and knowledge of the covered topic. Then, after the lesson has concluded, you will need to determine how to assess the students to determine if the learning objectives are achieved.
Required materials
This section outlines what will be needed through each area and activity of the planned lesson, such as specific textbooks, internet access and computers to do research, a projector to teach part of the class, charts, newspaper articles, and worksheets for the students.
This is where you will evaluate how well the lesson plan worked for the students. You should determine whether the content or learning session was too easy or hard, whether the students were motivated, and whether they reached the goals set out for the lesson. A lesson plan helps you, as a teacher, to evaluate how well the lesson plan worked. It can show you the weak and strong areas of your lesson plan so that you can make adjustments for future lesson plans.
9 Steps to Create a Lesson Plan
Each school will have different requirements regarding what they want their teachers to cover in their lessons. You can also have different requirements for charter and private schools with different curricula; for example, a catholic school will include religious studies. Therefore, before you create your lesson plan, it is a good practice to have a word with your school administrators to know what needs to be covered.
Then, you can follow the following steps to create an effective lesson plan:
Step 1: Mention the grade level and subject
Your first step is to include the subject you will teach and the grade level the material is for. It gives clarity to anyone who wants to review your lesson plan, such as an administrator, to see what you will teach and to whom.
Step 2: Specify the type of lesson
The next step is to explain what lesson you will teach. This means specifying whether you are teaching an entire unit or teaching the parts of the lesson plan during one class period each week.
Step 3: Write the duration of the lesson plan
In this step, you will be laying out how much time it will take to cover the entire lesson. Lessons can be taught during an entire class period or over a longer time frame, such as one class per week. It would be best to mention how long each teaching session would be.
Step 4: Mention the unit/topic
This element will explain the focus or subject of the lesson plan. This can be for the entire unit or can break down the unit into sub-sections; for example, if you are teaching a unit of Chemistry but will be teaching different aspects of Chemistry each week, your lesson plan would include the topic “Chemistry” and then weekly subtopics, such as “Chemistry – the periodic table”, “Chemistry – breakthroughs in history”, and so on.
Step 5: Compile the learning objectives and outcomes
This element is an essential part of a lesson plan. It outlines the goal/objective/outcome you expect your students to accomplish after the lesson. Your description should be written in a way that is easy for your students to understand and should be reviewed at the start of each class. One way to develop learning outcomes is using “Bloom’s Taxonomy”, which is based on three overlapping categories.
They are ordered by difficulty in 3 domains:
- Cognitive/Knowledge
- Affective/attitude
- Psychomotor/skills
The most accessible form of learning is the student’s recall, and the more complex form is the student’s ability to evaluate. Ask yourself these questions:
- What should your students expect to learn from the lesson you are teaching?
- What do you want your students to do after class?
- In what way will your students be able to apply what they have learned in the outside world?
Tip: The objective should be based on SMART criteria: S pecific, M easurable, A ttainable, R elevant, and T ime-based.
Step 6: Know your learners and select a teaching method
Always consider your students when creating a lesson plan. You need to know their grade level, learning ability, and what teaching method works best for them. For example, how you teach a class of 6th-grade students will differ from how you teach a class of 12th-grade students. In addition, you may have some classes for children with learning disabilities that need to be taught differently than a class of top-level students.
Here are some things to consider:
- In most classes, you will have a mix of students, some of whom work better independently and some who work better in a group. This can help you to plan out activities that will benefit both.
- Some students may have higher skills and knowledge about the topic you are teaching, whereas others won’t be familiar with the topic at all. Knowing this will help you when pairing students in groups to work together.
- The needs of each student are unique, and this is something that you need to consider when determining how much material you will include and how long each part will take.
Step 7: Plan your resources and materials
In this step, you will outline any materials needed or provided for the class and any resources students can use to help them through the lesson plan. An example would be a list of resources students can use to gather information or textbooks that will be supplied for that specific lesson. The purpose of this step is to make sure that your students are well-prepared for the lesson.
Step 8: Write the directions of what and how you will present
This step will take the most time of all the sections in a lesson plan. It should clearly explain what tasks you will be doing and what information you will teach. Your directions can be a minute-by-minute explanation or can be more generalized. An example would be explaining that you will spend the start of the lesson reading from a textbook, 20 minutes explaining the lesson, and then have a short quiz at the end of the class.
Step 9: Evaluate the lesson
An assessment is done after the class, and its primary goal is to determine how well your students have understood the material and topic of the lesson. This can be done as a question-and-answer session, a test, or a demonstration.
Tip: You must make sure that you leave enough time before the questions and answer session. You should plan at least 10 minutes at the end of each lesson to discuss what was learned. You can then ask questions to see how well the material was understood. It also gives the students a chance to ask their questions. Another option is to create small groups and assign each group to discuss one aspect of the lesson.
Lesson Plan Free Templates
Having a lesson plan can make the lesson-planning process much more manageable. For this purpose, this website has provided free, downloadable, and customizable lesson plan templates. You can download these templates for your ease. These templates will ensure you do not spend too much time planning the lesson and do not forget to miss any essential information.
Attention-Required Points
You must be prepared for every eventuality when teaching a lesson and following your lesson plan. Here are some key points to help you:
Script out a lesson
Scripting out a lesson can be helpful if you are feeling nervous about teaching a lesson, especially for the first time. Making a list of questions will help you to stay in control of the direction that your discussions will go in. In addition, as a teacher gains confidence in their teaching methods, they will be able to spend less time scripting their lesson. This allows them to spend more time teaching the lessons.
Allow for wiggle room
While a lesson plan can help you keep on track with your teaching, you should also leave some wiggle room as you plan. First, determine if there are tasks that can be skipped if the lesson lacks time. Next, determine what parts of the plan cannot be skipped, such as tasks that give your students the most information about the topic. Finally, you should also plan extra activities if the lesson ends earlier.
Over-plan, the class
When it comes to teaching, having more tasks to do is better than sitting idle. A lot will depend on how well your students understand the lesson. If you have planned 25 minutes for one part of the lesson, try cutting this down to 20 minutes. If your students complete the lesson early, it will give you time to discuss what has been learned.
Make it for a substitute teacher
A lesson plan should be created so that a substitute teacher understands. This will help them pick up where you have left, and it should be easy to understand the lesson’s objectives. If you are a teacher who likes to plan your lessons far in advance, having a simple lesson plan is a great way to refresh your memory when it comes time to teach this lesson.
Form a backup plan
There will always be days when your class gets through a lesson quickly and days when it takes longer due to a lack of motivation. Test dates may need to be rescheduled, and planned activities can sometimes fall through. So, it would be best to have a backup plan for these situations. You should also plan some side lessons as an alternative if things do not go according to the plan. For example, if you planned a short film to watch as part of the lesson, and the projector is not working that day, you should have an alternative that will keep the flow of the lesson plan going.
Wrapping Up
As a teacher, you want your students to get the most out of the lessons that you are teaching. Creating effective lesson plans, having backup plans, and being flexible can help things run smoothly. In addition, as you advance in your teaching career, you will find new and inventive ways to motivate your students. This will help you best deliver the information you are teaching your students.

Leading a Small Group
Small group lesson template: quick guide.

How to Write an Effective Bible Study
Have you ever wanted to study a passage from the Bible that is particularly relevant or meaningful with your small group but didn’t know how to prepare a small group lesson on your own?
The goal of this guide is to give you a simple way to prepare a lesson that can lead to true life change in your group.
When preparing a small group lesson , it’s important to remember that your goal isn’t to come up with something that sounds impressive or shows off your knowledge about the Bible. Your goal is to help the group grow in their relationship with God through studying the Bible together.
The questions you ask about what you’re reading should point your group members to Jesus and help them look for answers in the Scripture. God’s Word is powerful and can transform lives.
Step 1: Determine Your Goals
What do you want your small group members to take away from the lesson?
Answer the following questions:
What do I want my group members to understand and believe?
What do I want them to experience?
How do I want them to respond to Jesus? (First in their hearts and minds, which leads to the change of attitudes and behavior.)
Step 2: Launch Question
Connect the study to real life.
To start, ask a question that will cultivate an interest in your study by raising a problem or issue that your passage from the Bible addresses.
Your launch question should help your group members see their need for God to work in that area of their lives. Sometimes they may not see the connection to the passage right away, but it should become clearer as the lesson goes on.
Step 3: Exploration Questions
Investigate the bible.
Survey the Big Picture: Give them a brief overview of the context of the Scripture they need in order to understand your passage.
When and why was it written?
What happens in the passage before and after this one?
In what part of God’s story does it take place?
Explore the Passage: God determines the meaning of a passage, and good questions help you discover what God said. You can group your questions according to the way the passage is divided in your Bible (e.g., Ephesians 4:1-6, 7-16).
Here are three simple questions to keep in mind:
What does it say (observation questions)?
What does it mean (interpretation questions)?
Why does it matter (significance questions)?
Discover the Big Idea: Ask a question to help them catch the main point of the passage.
If you don’t know the answer to some or any of these questions, consult a good study Bible.
And, remember, you aren’t determining what a passage means, you are responding to the discovery of that meaning.
Step 4: Application Questions
Lead them to a heart-level response to christ.
Remember that your teaching will be most effective when it is focused on the good news of God’s ultimate plan to rescue humanity through Jesus .
Through Scripture, God intends “to restore aspects of our brokenness (the messiness of us and the world) to spiritual wholeness (what He intended for us),” and this is the way God makes us to be more like Him and helps us enjoy our relationship with Him.
We are dependent on God’s redemptive work — offering forgiveness through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for all we’ve done wrong — to not only become followers of Jesus but also for the process of becoming more like Him.
Ask a couple of questions based on what you read that do the following:
Help the group picture what it would look like practically to live out the Bible passage you’re reading
Reveal your need for God to help them see how they experience the “spiritual brokenness” this passage reveals (i.e., some aspect of their sin or brokenness that requires the grace of God ).
Point them to Jesus. What aspect of (the good news of) God’s grace do they need to believe and embrace in order to reflect and enjoy God’s glory?
See an example of a Bible study written using this template →
Passage: ephesians 1:1-14 (new living translation), learning objectives.
What do I want my group members to understand and believe?
I want my group members to understand they are adopted by God into His family forever and are given incredible blessings from God, starting with the Holy Spirit. I want them to believe that God loves them and cares for them with the pure love of a perfect Father.
What do I want them to experience?
I want my group members to experience joy in knowing they are the loved, chosen, adopted children of God. I want them to feel secure in their identity, knowing that what matters is being God’s child, not what other people think of them.
How do I want them to respond to Christ?
I want my group to delight in being in God’s family. I want them to understand the spiritual blessings we have in Christ, all of the good things God has given us in addition to forgiveness of sins, instead of seeing God as a means to an end (getting what they want in life). I want my group members to be moved to praise God as a result of the blessings He has for us in Christ.
What motivates people to adopt a child?
Observation (What does it say?)
What do you observe about the passage?
What are some themes?
What are some repeated phrases?
How are themes of identity and power present in this passage?
What does this passage say about the Trinity, God as three persons — God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit?
What does Paul say about Jesus Christ, especially in relation to us?
Interpretation (What does it mean?)
What does it mean to be adopted into God’s family (Verse 5)?
What is our “inheritance” from God (Verse 11)?
What does it mean that the Holy Spirit is a “guarantee” (some other versions translate it deposit or down payment) (Verse 14)?
How do the “spiritual blessings” God gives us and the inheritance we have in Christ lead us to praise God (Verses 5 and 14)
What important things did Paul want to communicate about what it means to be a child of God through this passage?
If you had to summarize the main point of the passage in a sentence, what would you say?
Apply (Why does it matter?)
Which of the spiritual blessings discussed in the passage do you identify with the most?
Which of the spiritual blessings discussed in the passage is the hardest to believe is true?
How does this passage inspire you to worship God?
How does being the loved, chosen, adopted child of God change the way you see yourself?
How would your life look different if you lived like you were the treasured child of God?
How can you remind yourself about your identity as a deeply loved child of God?
What’s Next?
Hopefully, this small group template is helpful to you. The main idea when leading your group in a Bible study is to point them to how the passage shows you your need for God and how perfectly and beautifully Jesus meets that need.
Now it’s time to get started!
First, choose a passage of the Bible that is meaningful to you and write a small group lesson using this template.

Four Key Components of a Small Group Meeting
Several questions may come to mind as you plan your small group. Here are four components that are key to most small groups or Bible studies that will answer your questions.
Gospel-Centered Small Groups
Life-changing small group environments are less about how-tos and more about experiencing Jesus. They are not focused on building head knowledge but on changing hearts and minds. These communities not only equip their members for service but also expose sin and call people to adore Christ. Christ-centered communities transform lives from the inside out.
