Grade 4


Grade 4 builds on the lessons of grade 3, starting with two flexible units: a study of Paul’s epistle to the Philippians and a unit on the writing of the Bible that covers the development of writing during ancient times, the writing of the Bible, and the organization of the Bible.

Students then begin an in-depth study of Israel from the time of the judges until Israel’s exile. These units show students numerous examples of God’s faithfulness, and how He showed both justice and mercy to His people. Students start making the connection between these Biblical examples and how God and those he places in authority have shown them justice and mercy. Students also note the many promises of hope and salvation that God gives to his people, especially in the final unit on Isaiah.

The curriculum set includes a comprehensive teacher guide packed with lesson plans, Bible resources, Bible memory, and countless activity ideas. Student workbooks contain engaging learning activities as well as a 32-page, 4-color Bible dictionary complete with photos and maps. Downloadable student test banks are also available.
