The Body Matters for Parents and Home Schools
What’s The Difference?
Parents often ask whether they should purchase an Educator Guide or a Parent Guide. Here’s a side-by-side comparison.
Educator Guide
Educator Guides were made with the classroom in mind. The information is much more robust and detailed.
Each Guide includes:
- Vocabulary, Objectives, and preparation laid out for the educator before each lesson
- Page-by-page suggestions for instruction and explanation of what the book intends to teach
- Classroom-based activities, Reviews, and Quizzes for the end of each lesson
- Multiple week-by-week instructional plans
Parent Guide
Parent Guides were made to enhance conversation between Parents and their children.
Each Lesson includes:
- A description of the goal that the lesson aims to communicate with the child
- A suggested personal story that the parents can tell their children
- Encouraged discussion topics to have with your child that relates to the lesson
- A family-based activity
Our Recommendation
- Homeschooling parents who want to add TOB to their child’s religion class would probably benefit from the educator guide.
- Parents who want to introduce TOB in a more casual and open-discussion way would probably enjoy the parent guide more.
