Simplicity is the key to this Bible-based curriculum. The 5 Year Old Curriculum is basic enough for the most energetic child, but allows for supplemental material to be added for the child who desires more sit-down activities. The learning is incorporated into the child's day instead of controlling his/her day.
The 5 Year Curriculum is a pre-kindergarten program for children who are older or more advanced. The 5 Year Lesson Plans Bible themes focus on the meaning behind the Scripture instead of simply memorizing Bible stories. The child will learn what the Bible is, who God is, ways that God desires to help us, and how we need to live. The 5 Year Curriculum focuses on writing the letters and identifying the letters in words. Each week contains a sight word taken from the "Fry Instant Word" list. According to Dr. Edward B. Fry, 25 of the 28 words introduced in the curriculum make up 1/3 of all items published. Academically, the child is introduced to many early elementary concepts - coins, clock, addition, weather, and so much more. Gross and motor skill activities along with visual perception activities are also a part of this curriculum.
Suggested activities are provided in the Lesson Plans to help teach the Biblical and academic concepts. These ideas also include links to free printables, games, crafts, cooking activities, and much more. Use all of the ideas or pick and choose whichever objectives are appropriate to your situation.
