Born of the Spirit Hard cover Family link Remember activities Student art exemplars Canadian experiences Student Texts

Born of the Spirit Contains year’s music with lyrics and accompaniment Music has both vocals or instrumental versions Some songs have gestures and dance Use them for liturgies Music CDs

Born of the Spirit Before children observe and study anything else, they observe and study their teachers. Thus, in catechesis, the teacher becomes a living example for children and, as such, are called upon to be a model of faith.

Born of the Spirit General Aim – Year 4 - Come and See Let us meet the Lord Jesus through the living experience of gospel witnesses and explore what it means to be a disciple and friend of Jesus today.

Born of the Spirit Scope and Sequence Year 4 – Come and See Unit 1 The Church hands on the Good News Unit 2 The Good News about Jesus Christ Unit 3 Jesus tells us about the reign of God Unit 4 A light shines in the darkness Unit 5 Jesus, born of a woman

Born of the Spirit Scope and Sequence Year 4 – Come and See Unit 6 Jesus reveals the compassion of God Unit 7 Jesus says “I am the way” Unit 8 Jesus gives his life for us Unit 9 My Lord and my God Unit 10 Jesus’ spirit is with us

Born of the Spirit The Process To use the experience of the Church handing on the Good News in the written Gospel and to relate this to students through personal experience, story, creative activity, prayer and ritual.

Born of the Spirit Program Cycles Primary This cycle continues to nurture the everyday faith life of the child and focuses on the need to belong to God and to a community of followers of Jesus.

Born of the Spirit Program Cycles Junior This cycle looks at the Church’s experience and faith in Jesus. We meet the Lord through the living experience of the Gospel witnesses and explore the theme of friendship and discipleship today.

Born of the Spirit Program Cycles Intermediate As students grow into adolescence and adulthood, they are encouraged to enter into the faith traditions in light of developing life questions.

Born of the Spirit Summary Only program approved by the CCCB Complete and comprehensive JK-12 Reflects history of Catholic education in Canada Authored and field tested by Canadian religious educators Regularly revised

Born of the Spirit Summary Teacher-friendly and comprehensive Similar format from year to year Excellent notes for catechist formation Provides sacramental preparation

Born of the Spirit However, the reality is … Dependant on faith-filled catechists Often squeezed out of timetable Not always on administration’s radar Many pastors unfamiliar with program Little or no support from home
