Recommended for Grade 9
This Student Exercise Book complements the Teacher Manual with the same title, providing opportunities for young people to get in touch with themselves and to reflect on who they are, where they are, and where they are going. Students become involved in processes of meaningful discovery of their own uniqueness and contributions. They discover that life is a journey during which individuals become themselves as they grow in self-knowledge, concern about others, and relationship with God.
The text consists of four parts: Personality-- Definition and Development; Faith Development; Influences on Development; and Emotions and Choices. Lessons emphasize topics such as social influences and psychological development.
Exercise books can serve as records of individual faith journeys. Activities stimulate class involvement, explore real-life experience, promote biblical and doctrinal literacy, foster creative thinking, teach community commitment, invite spiritual growth and prayer, and present service as essential to discipleship. This resource is to be used in conjunction with the Teacher Manual by the same title.
