Discovering Program
A Junior High Parish Religion Program
Thomas Zanzig, General Editor

Younger teens need a religious education program that addresses real-life teen issues and different learning styles. The Discovering Program is a comprehensive set of 14 six-session minicourses and teaching resources that help you create religion classes focusing on relationship building, active student participation, and sound religious principles. For teens in grades 6-8, the minicourse format is organized by grade level and gives program coordinators and teachers the flexibility to organize the courses into a curriculum that meets the unique needs of their students. The detailed teaching guides, full-color student booklets, and video resource material provide everything you need for a successful curriculum.
