Building Faith One Child At a Time

Publisher Description

Smartphones. Online gaming. Waiting for the next "big thing." Today's students have never known a time without access to digital technology and information-with its infinite possibilities and potential for pitfalls. So, how should teachers reach out, share, and help children build faith? With updated theories on child development, including the work of researcher Lev Vygotsky, this new edition brings to light twenty-first-century classroom considerations such as utilizing technology for age-appropriate lessons and activities, dealing with cyberbullying and negative online behaviors, and building faith through service to others. Knowing that only God can provide the power for faith to grow, let this be a worthwhile guide as you seek to better understand where you have been, where you are headed, and where you hope to lead others.
