Cody Haddock

3rd – 6th Grade

This class is full. Please speak to Admin about the waitlist.

Textbook: God’s Design for Life – MasterBooks

Materials: Folder

Supply Fee: $10 per semester

Length: 1 hour Class

Class Description: God’s Design: Life is the name of the book from Masterbooks by Debbie & Richard Lawrence. God is the Creator and the Bible can be trusted. God is the Master Designer and we can see His work all around us! He created everything with a plan and purpose, there is order to our world. This class will concentrate on the “World of Animals” part. (A separate small book of only God’s Design: Life “World of Animals” can be purchased used, they were sold as individual books first.) Each week the student will have a reading assignment and questions to complete at home. In class we will discuss what we have read and go deeper with activities and more information. We will do things such as dissecting owl pellets and eating like a whale. We will have unit quizzes for which they can use their book. We will also do about 4 reports on animals that may require a trip to the library.

Grades calculated as: 

Homework 30% + Quizzes 30% + Reports 40%

Any student 6th grade (or over) will have a few extra questions/assignments. 

I will try to make the grades not stressful and if our class is mainly younger I will make adjustments to make it fun and informative. I want us to learn so much more about our wonderful Creator as we look at His designs!
