Abeka Bible (4)

Description

Jumping into Grade 4 may feel reminiscent if you are following the Abeka Bible levels. Following the Grade 1 stories, students will enjoy the narrative approach to Bible stories about Jesus, creation, Old Testament patriarchs, and the life of Paul. Students will dig a little deeper in their understanding and comprehension of these Bible stories. Lesson guides are included with each set of cards with detailed prompts. The Fourth Grade Bible Curriculum guide details the Scope and Sequence, memory verses, and lesson plans. This is the resource to help teachers plan their Bible studies for the year. The kit will include the Sing unto the Lord 4 CD to teach 70 biblically-based songs and hymns, aiding understanding of Jesus’ love through the power of song. Grade 4 Bible introduces the Bible Journal 4 where students can let their creative juices flow as they study scripture and process the Word of God through writing. If you are a returning Abeka Bible user, consult the Abeka Bible Flash-A-Cards Chart to see what cards you already have and what cards you need to add for this grade level. The new Flash-a-Card® set added to your collection this year is Life of Paul Series 2.
