Opening the Toolbox
Review by Clancy Hayes.
In the most recent staff training book released by Gospel Publishing House, John Maempa and Sandy Friesen answer seven key questions concerning the development and use of curriculum.
Maempa, editor in chief of Radiant Life Resources, answers questions concerning the need for curriculum, how it is put together, how the various components of the curriculum work together, how teachers can adapt the curriculum to their particular classroom needs, how to put together an effective lesson based on curriculum, and why Pentecostal curriculum is vital for a Pentecostal congregation of believers.
Friesen, curriculum development specialist for Radiant Life Resources, provides an excellent chapter that will expose readers to the various learning styles which will help them better identify the needs of their particular students and will help them meet those needs.
Opening the Toolbox is as ideal resource to help teachers appreciate Radiant Life Resources and to maximize curriculum tools in their classrooms. The concluding chapter provides answers to many of the frequently asked questions targeted to the various age-level curriculum products offered by Radiant Life Resources. If you use Radiant Life Resources or want to know more about them, this book is a must.
