6th REL – Chapter Study Guides

Dear 6th graders and Parents,

Here is a link to Chapter Study Guides for the 6th grade Religion Text that you can use to prepare for the chapter quizzes.

Christ Our Life Chapter Study Guides (Gr. 6)

You will see that the page numbers do not exactly match up because these study guides reference the newest 2009 edition of the Christ Our Life series.  They still include the key points for each chapter from the 2002 edition that we are currently using.

Please bookmark this link on your computer so you can review as we move along through the curriculum.

Thank you!

SOME REMINDERS:

  • Don’t forget to order your Bibles!  All fees are due THIS FRIDAY, SEPT. 11
  • Chapter 1 QUIZ on FRIDAY, SEPT. 11

Bible Covers

Dear 6th and 7th graders,

Some of you were wondering how to protect the pages of your Bible when you are carrying it around in your backpack/totebag. I would suggest investing in a Bible cover, like the ones you see on this website:

Christian Book Bible Covers

There are all different designs, and they’re really useful for keeping highlighters and sticky tabs for Bible reading, too.

Some bookstores may sell them,  but you can also use a regular book carrier which would work just as well.

Happy Bible reading!

During the Month of All Souls, we continue to encourage prayer for our departed loved ones and the holy souls in purgatory.  More can be learned on this topic and others related to the after-life at the following event…

What Happens After Death …and Why It Matters Today (click here)

There is a suggested $15 donation for the seminar, which will be held this Saturday, Nov. 8 from 10am-3:30pm.

It is important to expose ourselves to learning opportunities outside of the classroom so that we can continue to grow in faith and knowledge of the things of God.

As an incentive for your attendance, you will receive…

  • 5 bonus points towards Religion for 1st and 2nd Trimesters
  • 1 Homework pass for Religion for 1st and 2nd Trimesters (if it is a major assignment, you would get a 2-day extension on the due date)

Please see Mrs. Dyogi for more information.  Thank you!
