If you only have 20-30 minutes to give your students an overview of the entire book of Hebrews, try using this matching game based on the popular "Memory" design. I used this with a small group of fifth and sixth graders, and they had so much fun learning about the New Testament book of Hebrews that I had to remind them not to get loud as they expressed their excitement.
Print out the six-page pdf document, and it will only take you about ten minutes to prepare. Once the pages are printed, you will need to cut them out and put them in a little bag. Take them into the classroom and spread them out face down on a table in an array. Students will take turns turning over two at a time, trying to find as many matches as possible.
The following outline was used to make the cards:

Jesus’ Humanity
Jesus is Better than Moses
Jesus Provides a Better Rest
Jesus is a Better High Priest
Hope is the Anchor of the Soul
Melchizedek
A Better Covenant
