Important information about Religion Class

The text for the class is not to be written in and needs to be covered with clear contact paper.  The small review book may be written in.  That should be kept in your accordion folder at all times. 

Homework for Religion - Homework in this class is a little different.  It is called Family faith and is meant to be done with someone in your family.  You are to practice talking about your faith by discussing the answers with someone.  Because you need to find someone to work with, the papers will be given out in advance.  You will find the due date on the web calendar.  You may always turn the work in early.

 

What we are learning-

We are learning about how God has shared his love for us by instituting the Church.  We will be exploring the concept of liturgy and evangelization.                             

                                     

What we are learning-

We are going to enter the time of Creation and Sin in our next unit.  We will learn about the 2 stories of Creation, as well as the story of Original Sin, Cain and Abel, Noah and the Tower of Babel.  We will see how these folk tales explain great Biblical truths of the love of God for all his people.

My teaching philosophy - Students and teachers are to given gifts by God.  It is our responsibility to use those gifts to the best of our ability every day.  Religion class is to help us learn more about our faith so we can grow in our relationship with God.  We will do activities to help us learn the content and activities to help us grow in our faith.
