Overview of the Class
At a time when God is
under attack by some in our nation who would change our national motto,
literature still tells the true story of those whose success came through their
faith. Our BJU reading books and other novels will be a great springboard to
talk about what the Bible says about strong godly character.
Guiding
children through literature that contains good, moral characters who represent
strong values, who overcome adversity, who make us laugh and make us cry is
essential in character building. It is still essential that the teacher be
there to to shine a light on the character traits and to open young eyes who
might otherwise miss a character building moment.
BJU
reading highlights character, moral values, and decision making skills in every
unit. Through our reading books and novel units, your children will be immersed
in character!
I will be teaching units of study
to all the students in my individual graded classes. Although many times all
the students will be working on the same skill, we will be using different
levels of materials and supplemental activities to enrich the learning of those
who need to be challenged above their grade level. Students may work on these
through individual contracts.
