Five Biblical PrinciplesReligious education of children is first of all the responsibility of the parents (Deuteronomy 6:6,7 and Ephesians 6:4). They are not left to teach God’s truth in isolation, however. A school that includes religious education classes (i.e., Bible classes) provides a focused context in the daily-life activities of students by which they can develop

A comprehensive knowledge of God’s Word A deepened love for God’s Word A committed obedience to God’s Word An integrated application of God’s Word

Because the Bible has its own stated truth and objectives, it is different from any other subject. Five biblical principles form the framework of this curriculum. 1. God revealed His plan for the world in a progressive story of redemption.

To reveal His character To reveal the character of

people To receive the glory and

honor that HE alone brought salvation to the world

Therefore this curriculum follows the chronological story of the Bible, giving an overall picture of God’s working through history to bring salvation.

2. God raised up men and women who loved Him and obeyed His ways during the times and culture in which they lived.

Therefore this curriculum uses storytelling, incorporates appropriate cultural background, and highlights the spiritual condition of the characters as the story unfolds.

3. God used the land of Canaan in order to teach Abraham’s descendents

That they must obey Him That they must rely on Him

for provision That He will keep His word That He will judge the evil

and corrupt practices of nations on the earth

Therefore this curriculum includes basic geography of biblical lands and at the appropriate age-level includes the use of a Bible atlas.

4. God rewards those who memorize His Word by keeping them from evil.

Therefore this curriculum includes age-appropriate memory work that fits with what is being taught and is connected to real-life situations.

5. God delights to give spiritual insight to those who study His Word in order to do it.

By living in right relationship with God

By living in right relationship with others.

Therefore this curriculum shows the relevancy of the Scriptures to real-life situations and encourages spiritual growth. It also includes age-appropriate Bible study tools and allows for students to share what they know and believe with others.

Objective Four: God rewards those who memorize His Word by keeping them from evil.Therefore the students should demonstrate Bible memory by•Establishing a consistent pattern of memorization•Recalling memorized verses after a period of time•Accurately recalling references with content•Relating verses to real-life situations

Method: The best program we have found for Bible Memory is Memlok. Ideally, each family would have their own, or each school computer would have a copy of the program. To learn about the program, you may contact Memlok directly at www.memlok.com. The Memory Logs are an adaptation of the Memlok program for a classroom that does not have access to a computerized version.

Assessment: Memory work should count 15-20% of the overall grade. It consists of Quoting the verse to a parent or adult Keep an accurate log of three reviews per week Taking a random memory quiz over verses learned that quarter. Using the

Memlok pictures, each week the picture side of the verses will be randomly mixed. Students will write the verse that matches the picture they have chosen.

Reviews and Tests


Objective Two: God raised up men and women who loved Him and obeyed His ways during the times and culture in which they lived.Therefore the students should know the people, events, and time period by •Identifying notable accomplishments of the characters• Recognizing the timeless truth of the passage•Identifying significant detailsObjective Three: God used the land of Canaan in order to teach Abraham’s descendants.Therefore the students should understand the location in which the events took place by•Locating the cities, territories, and countries relevant to the time •Explaining the relevance of the geography to an event

Method: After 2-3 weeks of instruction, a complete Review Day is done in class. About 15 min. is given for the students to mark the Review Sheet and ask questions. After that students either quiz each other or the class plays a Review Game. The Test content follows the Review Sheet closely. When the students know that the test is not trying to ‘trick” them, they gain confidence that they can do well if they study what they’ve been asked to learn. After the Test is taken the day following the Review, a word search or crossword puzzle is handed out for those students who finish early. The content of the puzzle is connected to the test content for further reinforcement of content.

Assessment: Tests collectively make up 45% of the overall grade. The goal of the test is mastery of content, so traditional matching, multiple choice, T/F, short answer and occasionally short essay questions are used.

Projects

Notebooks

Power Points


Objective One: God revealed His plan for the world in a progressive story of redemption.Therefore the students should know and understand•the chronology of the main characters •the progression of the main eventsObjective Five: God delights to give spiritual insight to those who study His Word in order to do it.Therefore the students should study and apply biblical principles by•Sharing the truth of Scripture with someone else•Using appropriate study tools to find relevant information

Method: The goal of the Student Notebook is to make a chronological compilation of all the notes, tests, handouts, reading sheets, and memory work that has been done during the semester. Using a 30-page pre-bound dossier (60 sheets) is ideal for ending up with a “book” at the end of the semester. The Table of Contents is set by the teacher, and is subject to adjustment based on the teacher’s preferences.With the Power Point project each lesson is summarized, illustrated, and animated. Verses are coordinated with specific lessons.Students share their work with parents at home and with the class.

Assessment: The projects account for 15-20% of the overall grade. No work is thrown away and notebooks are updated regularly. Grades for the notebooks are given half way through the semester (after nine weeks.) Power Point projects start after the first nine weeks and are turned in at the end of the semester.
