My friend and client, Danika runs the site Thinking Kids Blog. She's writing a curriculum to help you keep your kids in the Word. It's called Bible Road Trip. Today, she's sharing a little bit about Bible Road Trip and how you can get it for your kids.
Have you found yourself wishing you had a systematic way to study Scripture with your children? Do you want your family to know and understand the whole counsel of God–from cover to cover? Have you struggled to find a way to study God's Word with your family that includes all ages? Are you hoping for a Bible curriculum that takes children deep into Scripture?
Bible Road Trip may be the solution to your family's Bible curriculum needs.
What is Bible Road Trip?
Bible Road Trip is a three-year Bible survey curriculum written at 5 levels for preschool through high school. Each year includes a 32-week customizable schedule and walks families through the Bible book by book. Each week plan includes Scripture reading and memorization, and additional activities such as: notebooking, crafts, research projects, a weekly prayer focus for the nations, and time-tested videos and books to deepen understanding of the book being studied. Every developmental level of Bible Road Trip is designed to coordinate with the other levels, allowing families to study God's Word together while still being challenged to grow.
Bible Road Trip also incorporates Notebooking Journals for three levels of the program: Lower Grammar (grades 1-3), Upper Grammar (grades 4-6), and Dialectic (grades 7-9). (Rhetoric level students have a more involved weekly project assigned.) The Notebooking Journals are filled with beautiful full-color artworks from artistic masters of eras past–such as Van Gogh, Michelangelo, and Rembrandt, as well as photographs of archaeological artifacts and ruins, and the weekly country shared by photographers around the world via the Creative Commons license. They have room for copying the weekly memory verses, pages for taking notes about each book of the Bible studied, several pages of notes about the weekly lessons, two pages for notes on the weekly research project (at the Dialectic level), and pages to list prayer concerns for the countries or continent studied that week. Line widths and writing spaces are appropriate for the grade level of each journal.
Bible Road Trip is free for Thinking Kids subscribers to download on a week-by-week basis. By popular demand, it is now available for purchase in a single full-year PDF download. Each year of the curriculum and every level of notebooking journal can be purchased for just $20 for a family/household copyright. That means that you may use the curriculum you purchase or download for free to serve your entire household. (There is also a classroom copyright available too.)
