Scripture: Third Grade
School Year Objective
Third Grade students will learn the basics of navigating the Bible. They will also memorize the names of the books in the Old and New Testament.
Getting Started
Students will learn how to read the Bible. They will discover that although the Bible contains many different books, there is a "golden thread" that unites them all--our salvation history, which is woven from the creation of the world to its final destiny in Christ. Throughout the year, as the students become more familiar with an overview of Scripture and learn to locate Bible chapters and verses, they will learn to memorize the 73 books of the Bible (46 in the Old Testament and 27 in the New Testament).
Suggested Resources
Chapters 21 & 22 of Memorize The Faith! by Kevin Vost*
Chapters 1-5 of History's Golden Thread by Sofia Cavalletti*
12 Periods of Salvation History
*Material available in SMM Formation Office upon request
