Description
This teacher guide leads families through a beautifully designed Christian homeschool study for K–3 students that helps parents and educators nurture moral and spiritual growth through the power of story. This character study leverages picture books and lessons structured around the fruits of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Research shows that the right stories—when paired with meaningful questions—can significantly support the development of compassion, the ability to imagine other perspectives, and emotional intelligence in children. This teacher guide applies those insights with intentional read-alouds, thoughtful discussion prompts, and activities designed to bring these values to life in your family through everyday practice and connection.
Created specifically for homeschooling families, The Teaching Character Through Literature Teacher Guide is downloadable with both digital and printer-friendly formats, making it flexible and easy to use. Each unit pairs timeless children’s literature with Scripture readings, guided conversations, and hands-on activities that make abstract character traits feel real, memorable, and relevant to daily life.
With a gentle rhythm and an emphasis on beauty, reflection, and relationship, this curriculum turns storytime into a rich, faith-based foundation for moral and emotional growth. Whether you're new to homeschooling or looking for a values-based resource, this study offers everything you need to teach character at home in a meaningful and lasting way.
