This class will be taught using the Foundation Comparative Worldview Curriculum (www.foundationworldview.com) that equips kids with a biblical worldview and exposes them to the basic beliefs of competing worldviews. This Curriculum sets the stage for critical worldview analysis and biblical worldview integration in every area of life. As children begin to learn the basic tenets of competing worldviews, they quickly will begin to recognize these philosophies in novels, textbooks, television shows, movies, music, and daily conversations.
(The reason the supply fee is so high for this class is because I need to purchase the licensing rights to be able to teach this curriculum at a co-op. ALL of the supply fees will go directly to pay this license. After paying for the licensure, I will be able to print off all of the students worksheets, ect. Therefore, students won’t have to purchase books separately, I will provide them with copied prints! The rest of the supply fee will be used to cover the cost of printing the sheets, ect.)
I AM SO THRILLED TO GET TO BRING THIS CURRICULUM TO YOUR KIDDOS!
Why worldview education? Christians need to directly instruct their children in worldview analysis and equip them to recognize how the Christian worldview lines up with reality in a way that no other worldview does. While there are valuable comparative worldview resources for high school and college-age students, waiting until these later years to provide such instruction is detrimental. Critical thinking skills begin to develop in the mid-elementary years. The Christian community needs to make the most of these formative years by preparing children to evaluate every idea they encounter and understand the truth of the Christian worldview.
In class, we will have time for prayer, teaching, listening, and interactive games with groups and partners. The students will be sent home with discussion and follow up questions to do with parents at home.
