Teachers
As part of the SCSBC community we provide teachers opportunities to network together, and assist in encouraging and shaping Christian education which extends from a biblical framework. In this section of our website, you'll find ProD Opportunities and Workshops available for your specific teaching level and/or subject. Our Resources and Publications sections will be updated regularly, so be sure to visit often.
A Christian school designs its learning to equip children and young adults to live responsively and responsibly for their Creator, Redeemer, and Lord. The school cannot do the work of the Holy Spirit, who convicts sinners and calls them to repentance and faith. However, the school tries to structure its learning in a way that proclaims the need for a commitment to Christ and to reveal the enormous claim God has on each of our lives. Learning in a Christian school should proclaim God's dynamic design for the universe, revealing life's inherent interrelatedness. The SCSBC Directors of Learning - Joanne den Boer and Bill de Jager - are available to answer questions by phone and email, or a school visit.

This workshop is designed to assist classroom teachers and resource teachers in meeting the needs of talented and gifted students in their schools. In this workshop, the emphasis will be on elementary and middle school students although information will also be relevant for high school (e.g., twice exceptional students).
- Opening - Devotions, Introductions
- Review of Rationale for enrichment in the classroom and in the school
- Twice-exceptional students - gifted and learning disabled
- Gifted underachievers
- Applying strategies to Language Arts, Social Studies and Science curriculum
- Teachers - take along a language arts / literature study unit, as well as a socials or science unit
- Resources
NOTE: To create maximum benefit, once the registration is complete, names of participants will be made available to you prior to the Focus Day. This will allow teachers to contact each other in advance and perhaps co-plan to take along similar language arts or literature units, socials or science unit studies, or themes so that work time is more effective.
Registration Deadline February 19, 2010.
