Great Christian Stories for Children - Generations Reading Grade 6
Description
Exposing middle school students to good, beautiful, and
truth-filled literature to fill their hearts and minds, the Great Christian
Stories for Children program is a yearlong, student-independent reading
comprehension program. Parents can feel good about the content their middle
school students are reading. God-centered literature will stretch students’
understanding and discernment as well as deepen their own faith development.
Components of this program include:
The Student Workbook, which provides basic parent information, a suggested schedule, and all the student worksheets, tests, essays, and answers
The Generations Timeless Classic Heidi
The Generations Timeless Classic The Pilgrim’s Progress
Young Reader’s Edition of God’s Smuggler
Intended for 6th grade students, but any middle school–aged student will benefit from reading this literature. Please note that the student work will align with the Generations Timeless Classic Heidi text, not just any copy of Heidi. ~Rebecca
