Equipping the next generation of biblically literate Christians
CSI offers instructional support on features, benefits, and best practices for Bible teachers to make the curriculum content transformational in the lives of students.
Selecting the right curriculum materials is the first step but implementing them for optimal use in your classroom is a whole other process. Our Bible Specialist is trained and ready to help you dig into our Bible curriculum to adapt these materials to meet your content and learning objectives for your classroom and ultimately your school's mission.
When students generate their own questions on the biblical text and explore answers in group discussion, their learning “sticks” longer! Learning to verbalize questions and seek out answers—in community, with trustworthy sources—is perhaps the top skill we can provide students.
How can discussion help students interpret Scripture? Ben Tameling of Grandville Calvin Christian Schools shares eight techniques for text-centered discussion, fueled by students’ own observations and questions.
Elizabeth Jacobs of Trinity School in Durham, North Carolina shares six tips for an inner-outer circle. By setting a formal tone, this discussion model has helped students discuss Scripture in a mature, thoughtful manner. “It brings out the best in my students!” she shared.
