Religion Grades K-12 Curriculum Guide Religion Grades K-12 Office of Education North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists 2001 The North American Division The North American Division includes the United States and Canada, as well as the Islands of Bermuda, St. Pierre, and Miquelon. With such a diversity of cultures, this curriculum guide is designed to ensure that uniform standards are maintained.

In the beginning, God created in His image a perfect humanity, a perfection later marred by sin. Through Christ and His Spirit, God determined to restore humanity from its lost state. Through the Bible, He has revealed His will to the world, a revelation that supersedes human reason. Through His Church on earth, He seeks the lost for His kingdo m. The basic tenets of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, including the inspired writing of Ellen White, are directed toward God’s restorative plan for fallen humanity. The Church conducts its own system of education to engender belief in these tenets, within the context of one’s personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and to foster a desire to share that relationship with others. Made in God’s image, every human being, although fallen, is endowed with attributes akin to those of the Creator. Therefore, Adventist education seeks to nurture thinkers rather than mere reflectors of others thoughts; loving service rather than selfish ambition; maximum development of one’s potential; and an appreciation for all that is beautiful, true, and good. An education of this kind imparts far more than academic knowledge. It is a balanced development of the whole person. Its time dimensions span eternity. In Adventist education, homes, schools, and churches cooperate together with divine agencies in preparing learners for citizenship here on this earth and in the New Earth to come. 1 Rationale The ancient observation that inside every person there is a God-shaped vacuum is still true today. Considering that reality, Seventh-day Adventist educational philosophy recognizes that students might excel in the various areas of academics, but if their soul’s deeper inner yearning for God is not met, they can never be fulfilled. Only in Christ can peace and joy be truly found. In light of scriptural emphasis, the K-12 religion curriculum seeks to bring students into a meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ. Through Christ they are transferred into God’s kingdom, receiving a new perfect status with Him, and experiencing a transformed life. Having embraced God’s love through Christ, the K-12 religion curriculum will help students explore God’s claim on their lives, ever seeking new ways to express their love to Him and others, through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit. Without the central focus on a right relationship with God in school life and academic thought, students can easily conclude that God doesn’t exist or that He really doesn’t matter. The K-12 religion curriculum, therefore, seeks to provide for students a spiritual dimension that has immediate and eternal rewards. The integrity of the Seventh-day Adventist educational system is dependent on a meaningful religion curriculum which enables these life experiences. An important ingredient is a classroom that will maintain an atmosphere that is fundamentally different from other classrooms. Here instructors are to provide an environment which encourages students to not be mere reflectors of other men’s thoughts, but to ponder their own lives and make decisions related to their eternal future. The greatest need in the classroom is a Spirit-filled teacher. “In the highest sense, the work of education and the work of redemption are one; for in education, as in redemption, ‘ot her foundat ion can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ .’ ‘It was the good pleasure of the Father that in Him should all the fulness dwell.’ The great principles of education are unchanged. ‘They stand fast forever and ever;’ for they are the principles of t he character of God. To aid the student in comprehending these principles, and in entering into that relation with Christ which will make them a controlling power in the life, should be the teacher’s first effort and his constant aim. The teacher who accepts this aim is in truth a co-worker with Christ, a laborer together with God.” Education, p. 30 2 Introduction The North American Division K-12 Religion Curriculum Guide Committee has taken as its standard the principles and teachings found in the Word of God, as embraced in the 27 Fundamental Beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist church. Every effort was made by the committee to make this guide user-friendly in respect to helping the teacher grasp the instructional emphasis and scope of the entire curriculum. Elementary The elementary curriculum strands are based on the 27 Fundamental Beliefs and are combined in theme groupings for grades K-8. The resulting nine strands and related essential learnings are correlated with the lessons on each grade level in the “Correlation Guide.” Strand Fundamental Belief 1. Holy Scriptures 1 2. Trinity 2-5 3. Universal Conflict, Creation, Fall, and 6-10 Redemption of Man 4. The Church and Its Mission 11-15 5. Spiritual Gifts 16, 17 6. Formula for Abundant Life 18-22 7. Christ Our Advocate 23 8. The End of Sin 24, 26, 27 9. Death and Resurrection 25 The goals and essential core elements of the FACT 21 document are also correlated to the strands and essential learnings at each grade level. A summary of the 27 Fundamental Beliefs and the FACT 21 Essential Core Elements are found in the Appendix. The teacher will find this guide helpful: 1. to identify the essential concepts to be taught in grades K-8, 2. to enrich the Bible curriculum beyond the textbook, 3. to plan for instruction and to help implement accountability in teaching, 4. to track class progress. 3 Secondary The Crossroads Series is the religion curriculum for grades 9-12 in Seventh-day Adventist schools. In order to help the teacher understand and appreciate the underlying premise and theme of this series, this curriculum guide includes the following elements: 1. An explanation of the Logo of the Crossroads Series which is found in each textbook. 2. The Goal for the Crossroads Series. 3. The Presuppositions of the Crossroads Series. 4. A general overview of the fourteen textbooks that comprise the Crossroads Series. 5. A Scope and Instructional Emphasis Correlation Guide which identifies forty-eight major religious strands, including the 27 Fundamental Beliefs, and correlates each with the fourteen textbooks. 6. A correlation of the forty-eight major religious strands with each of the FACT 21 Goals and Essential Core Elements. A summary of the 27 Fundamental Beliefs and t he FACT 21 Essential Core Elements are found in the Appendix. The teacher will

  • Chronology of Seventh-Day Adventist Education: 1872-1972
    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.

  • Union College During My First Year of Teaching Here
    IAMA Online Notes Spring 2015/ music vacancies summary IAMA Online Notes Spring 2015 President's Message The IAMA Online Notes continues to be a wonderful vehicle for us musicians to keep informed about what is happening musically in our denomination. Once again Dan Shultz has pulled together a very informative newsletter that keeps us from feeling isolated in our own limited spheres of influence. Harold Lickey, who died earlier this week, came to Walla Walla University my senior year there. It was with sadness that I learned of his passing a few days ago after several years of illness. My sympathies go out to his family and friends. It was a surprise to hear that Mount Vernon Academy is being closed at the end of this school year. It was one of the main feeder schools to what is now Washington Adventist University when I was teaching there in the 1960s. Congratulations to Linda Neel upon her retirement from Portland Adventist Academy. She was completing her master’s degree in music at Pacific Union College during my first year of teaching here. She has become a legend in the Portland area, and we are proud of her as one of our PUC alumni. It was great to see that Marvin Robertson is still so active in music at age 80. I really miss getting to see him and the other SDA music department chairs from across the nation at the National Association of Schools of Music annual meetings. It would be fun to get together this November in St. Louis again.
