The Student Workbook, rather than weekly take-home worksheets, is used because a book that a child has diligently worked on, week by week, over the course of the study will provide the child with a lasting reminder of the lessons and key themes. The workbooks are kept in class each week. Children take their workbook home at the completion of the course. The workbooks can then serve to assist parents in reviewing with their children precious truth about God.
Choose between print (spiral bound) or electronic download (64 pages).
Each licensed copy of the Student Workbook is for single use by one child. The Student Workbook may not be reprinted or reused. Single copies may be made for visitors, but a license must be purchased if the child becomes a regular attendee.
Order 1 set of buttons for each student. This item includes 5 sets of 4 buttons each.
Encourage students to reach different goals during the study with our Student Buttons. The projects children can complete to earn a button include:
The four, 1 1/2 inch buttons feature new illustrations and a clean, modern look. The Student Buttons are perfect for children to display on backpacks or church bags as they complete their goals.

Proverbs is a book of great advice...and an ominous warning. The advice is to pursue wisdom. The warning is to avoid folly, because foolishness leads to destruction. However, wisdom must be pursued—it takes effort, discipline, a teachable heart, and instruction. This Midweek Bible curriculum uses the book of Proverbs and other Bible passages to contrast the way of the foolish with the way of the wise. Using a large banner illustrating two paths, children learn about the characteristics and destinations of the foolish and the wise, the meaning of the fear of the Lord, the treasure of wisdom, and the only way to enter the way of the wise—through Jesus Christ.
