Editorial Reviews

Review

Cathy Duffy, author of The Christian Home Educator's Curriculum Manual says: "Character qualities are used as the foundation for more narrowly focused units of study. The material is an interesting combination of both old and new learning methods. Ideas for teaching children of all ages are included, making this an ideal tool for home educators." Copyright, Cathy Duffy --The Christian Home Educator's Curricullum Manual

I found this book to be a wealth of resource material. It provides the parent with various Godly character qualities that we all want to teach our children and shows you where to find resources: scriptures and songs to reinforce that Godly quality. Each unit is organized for you and you can choose how to implement it in your family. Each unit includes a key verse along with working definitions for the quality you are studying. There is scripture suggested to memorize or meditate and songs and projects to do. I was encouraged by the discipline suggestions found at the beginning of the book. This is a great resource for the homeschool family or anyone teaching children at church. Online at: http://www.books4homeschool.com/Bible/rev-bib/bib-3-de.htm --M. McNett, Valyermo, CA

This is a wonderful resource for character studies. It is full of verses, hymns, projects and activities, video and audio resources covering 95 different character qualities categorized in 9 units. It would work well for homeschooling, VBS or Sunday Schools. Very comprehensive. http://www.homeschoolingabroad.com/curriculum%20choices.htm --Home Schooling Abroad

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Tool for the Home!!!, October 28, 2004
By 
Gregory Nyman (Winchendon, MA United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This is a wonderful handbook and resource guide for parents and teachers, and it covers the many areas of life for a child such as: Love, Faith, Wisdom, Loyalty, Virtue, Responsibility, Obedience, Forgiveness, and Integrity.

The Elements of the Study include 95 Character Qualities; key verses; definitions; hymns and choruses; scripture passages for meditation; Bible facts; and ideas for projects and activities. There are also Practical tips for planning a unit of study; long and short-range goals for a family; suggestions for use in reinforcement; basic steps of correction; and tips for church and school use.

A great tool for the Home, and in particular for folks who homeschool their children, although it wouldn't be limited to that!! Highly recommended.
