Description

This teacher-directed Bible book alphabetically teaches truths from Noahs Ark and the Genesis flood. The teacher presents the lesson from the left-hand side while the student views the cartoon-illustrated, poem-format story on the right-hand side. Each story highlights an alphabet letter and a tangible or Biblically-themed word such as C is for Continent or W is for Watchfulness. The low-prep teachers portion includes the story and a scripted-format lesson using activities and questions that review and expand upon key ideas and additional vocabulary using the same letter. By Ken and Mally Ham; resource for the Biblical Beginnings for Preschoolers program. Hardcover, 72 pp. ~ Ruth

Category Description for Biblical Beginnings For Preschoolers

This curriculum from Master Books is designed to introduce Biblical themes while integrating some preschool basic skills. Using a combination of several books and a teacher guide, this program is a full Bible program designed for lessons of 45 minutes to an hour, four times a week for 36 weeks, for 3-5 year olds. The curriculum can be used at home, in Sunday school, co-op or a small school setting. The Teacher Guide provides what you as teacher need to plan, teach and record Bible lessons. Youll find lesson plans and weekly schedules, instructions, materials lists and coloring pages. Each weekly schedule of four lessons includes reading, coloring pages, activities and vocabulary building. Scheduling provides direction and yet enough flexibility to meet your specific needs. A suggested semester schedule briefly overviews material and then a daily schedule outlines each days objectives. Since Biblical Beginnings has multiple teaching venues in mind, lessons include "Circle Time" and different Center Times. These, however, can be easily adapted for the home school room. A minor point, but some of the coloring page illustrations werent my cup of tea (a little too cartoony for my tastes). Consumable and reproducible (for up to 10 students in one classroom)perforated pages. 14;" x 11", 164 pp, sc.
