BJU Curriculum

We have carefully chosen Bob Jones University Press curriculum to reflect our values of providing a quality and challenging educational program. It offers a time tested, research based program with a traditional approach to learning.

Curriculum That Supports Our Values

BJU materials provide resources and ideas that are needed for a successful educational experience. Although the curriculum is planned and structured, Infinity’s commitment is to the individual student and his/her true educational needs. The curriculum is centered on the individual student in order to prepare them toward maturity – spiritually, academically, physically, and socially.

  • Academic Rigor
  • Biblical Worldview Shaping
  • Compliance with National Standards
  • Dependable Context
  • Excellence for Each Student

Science

Bob Jones Science is a very comprehensive, systematic, quality curriculum that meets national standards as well as incorporating biblical truths within the lessons. Materials are developed with increasing depth at each grade. All major science topics are introduced in grades 1-6 and then developed in detail in grades 7-12. Each class will participate in a variety of hands-on, science-skill-building activities or experiments. We were excited to find the scientific method within each one. We feel certain this curriculum will give your young children a solid foundation in science.

History

BJU writers try to discover not only what actions occurred at a particular time but also WHY they occurred. As students study important historical people and events, they will be challenged to evaluate them from a biblical perspective. In every war, achievement, and human decision, we see God’s hand. He works behind the scenes turning human failure into good and moving world events toward the conclusion He has planned. Through the study of history we learn about His goodness, His promises, and His power. © BJU Press

Language Arts

As we searched diligently to find a program that encompassed all the language arts skills and followed essential elements, we wanted to keep focused on growing your precious children for God’s glory by encouraging growth in Christian character. Bob Jones University (BJU) reading program offers just that and more. Included is a variety of selections – family stories, adventure, Christian realism, historical fiction, Bible accounts retold, biographies, information articles, folktales, poems and plays.

Spelling

BJU Spelling is a traditional program using a five day approach to instruction. Students are taught phonetic and structural generalizations to give them the ability to spell words beyond list words. Students develop an understanding of word structure and mastery of spelling through the use of guided activities, dictionary skills and generalizations.

Literature

Other than our variety of genres through our reading selections, students will be exposed to great literature through a list of classic selections given to them by their teachers. They will also be able to enjoy supplementary full length novels published by BJU called Booklinks. Teacher guides include lesson plans and special activities to accompany these supplementary materials.

Mathematics

Mathematics reveals much about the underlying structure of the universe. As students study math, they see evidence of our all powerful Creator who is very much concerned about order and the value of His creation. From the initial unit of study, students see a basic understanding about the place and value of the 10 digits we use. The God we serve is also very concerned about relationships. We find a dynamic relationship between inverse operations such as addition and subtraction and then multiplication and division.

Guided Schooling

Since we are teaming with parents, the BJU teacher edition guides are recommended in order for you to teach during your days at home. Each parent’s commitment involves supporting their student by ensuring assigned work is completed, teaching lessons needed in preparation for the next school day, and encouraging a general love for learning demonstrated by their commitment of time and thoughtful involvement. Parents are encouraged to enrich and extend their individual child’s talents and interests as they deem necessary and confer with the teacher to best meet each student’s needs.

Some of the major advantages of our program are:

 

  • Excellent scope and sequence
  • Extensive labs/hands-on activities
  • Provides an excellent preparation for upper-level science.

 

BJU writers give God the credit when it comes to science. Our world promotes that science is a product of genetic mutations and random events. BJU scientists write that our intricate structure of insects are the hand of God. The balance of the water cycle and variety of plant and animal species tell them that God loves order and variety equally. Each wonder of science teaches another truth about the Creator. © BJU Press
